My Surveying Background
Over the last 25 years, I have worked as a captain and engineer on all shapes and sizes of yachts and commercial vessels. When I join a new boat the first task is always to assess the condition and prioritise a job list so I have effectively been 'surveying' yachts for over 25 years!
I hold Professional Indemnity and Public Liability Insurance to survey private or commercial vessels up to 30mtrs LOA and I am an accredited member of the Professional Yacht Designers Surveyors Association (YDSA) where I am also a committee member, and an affiliate member of International Institute of Marine Surveyors (IIMS).
As you explore my website, you will see that I am passionate about keeping vessels in a safe, seamanlike condition so this job is perfect for me.
