Yacht Inspections
Vessel and Systems Inspections
Similar in concept to a Pre-Purchase Survey – but includes more extensive inspection, testing, and operational checks – and without a seller / broker being involved. The end goal is to ensure the safety, comfort, and compliance of your vessel for your intended use.

You can use this report to task the boatyard and service companies in the repair and services of your vessel. Key events where you may want to request a Vessel and Systems Inspection are:

Thermal Imaging
A Powerful Non-Destructive Testing Process
Hull and Deck
Thermal infrared thermography is a Non Destructive Testing (NDT) method for evaluating debonds, voids, delamination, liquid intrusion and degradation of core materials in fiberglass and composite materials and for determining the extent of damage from a loss related incident, quantify manufacturer defects, or evaluate materials degradation due to normal wear and tear. Electrical
Bad wiring and fuses tend to heat up as they fail, hiding from sight until the problem becomes “self-evident.” Fortunately, thermal imaging instantly makes those hot spots clearly visible so you can troubleshoot electrical systems quickly, and make repairs immediately. Scan breaker panels, fuses, connections, and more with a thermal imager and get an instant picture of impending trouble. Mechanical
Quickly monitor and troubleshoot mechanical equipment and systems with accuracy and efficiency. Scan pumps, engines, exhausts, storage tanks, and motors, to ensure your equipment is well-functioning. |
