SERVICES DESCRIPTIONS
INDEPENDANT SERVICES
VESSEL INSPECTION
CONDITION & VALUE
Whether you are buying a vessel, insuring it, or assessing damages, every owner needs a Condition and Valuation report at some point during their ownership. However, unlike industry norms, we inform you on the vessel's condition prior to report issuance, giving you the option to opt out, if the report is not commercially favourable.
REFIT ASSESSMENT
Yacht refit projects often result in budgets blowouts, schedules overruns, and non-compliant modifications. Whether its performance upgrades, personal modifications, or damage remediation, our team will assess, and plan your refit project to enable informed decision making, and ensure the greatest value, at the lowest cost.
