Scope & logistics

What a survey day involves

Access matters more than anything else to survey quality.

Lift-out or in-water

Hull below the waterline can only be assessed properly ashore. We advise which parts of the scope require a lift-out and coordinate with the yard.

Sea trial (optional)

Machinery under load, steering, handling, instrumentation and sail systems observed under working conditions and recorded separately.

Report delivery

A structured PDF report with vessel particulars, findings by area, photographs, instrument data and prioritised recommendations.
