I specialize in surveying recreational boats, yachts,
and commercial fishing vessels, serving NJ, PA, DEL,
MD, NY, and beyond. I am fully qualified to handle
your surveying needs, whether you are a first time
buyer or an experienced boater. In addition to
pre-purchase, condition and valuation, damage and
insurance surveys, I also offer consulting services for
the boat restorer and for boat repair. I would be glad
to offer assistance helping you determine what type
of boat best suits your needs if you're looking to buy.
You can be assured your survey will be meticulously
done and fully encompassing. I work solely for you.
Why hire me to survey your boat??
I am a member of the ABYC, NFPA, USSA,
ABBRA, USNI, and Boat US-Technical
Exchange, and my surveys follow guidelines
and requirments set by the ABYC, NFPA, and
the USCG.

I have been a boat owner for 42 years, with 30 boats ranging from 16 to 85 feet, and have owned and
operated all types, from runabouts, to express cruisers, sportfishermans, to commercial working boats. I
have had a marine repair business since 1990, and unlike many surveyors who may be seeing your particular
boat for the first time, I've been in the bowels of more types, years, and makes of boats than I can think of.
I am aware through years of owning boats, and working on them, which makes, models, and years have had
their particular problems, or defects. Therefore, I can tell you firsthand what to stay clear of, or what to
look out for in a given make, model, or year.
