Pleasure Craft, Commercial Craft & Marine Facilities
Pleasure Craft:
If you’re planning on buying a boat, a vessel appraisal survey can be invaluable. Our surveyors will assess the condition and value of a pleasure vessel and provide you with detailed documents to back up our findings.
If your boat is damaged or has been involved in an accident, we can offer a complete, impartial claims assessment of the damage. We offer a bevy of services available to insurance claims professionals structured to meet your needs.
If you insure pleasure boats, Scott Marine can provide you with a complete evaluation of any pleasure craft. Our surveyors can also inspect a vessel to verify that it meets all federal and voluntary fire and safety standards.
Commercial Craft:
As with pleasure craft, Scott Marine can provide complete evaluations on any commercial craft. We can evaluate a new or used vessel for purchase, assess any damage to a vessel and provide F & I inspections.
We also offer special survey options designed specifically for insurers and lenders. For example, if you presently insure or anticipate insuring a single vessel or a small fleet, determining the condition and value of those vessels is crucial. The mooring location, the intended use, and the qualifications of the captain and crew are all important when it comes to evaluating risk. Roy Scott Marine can help.
Marine Facilities Surveys:
Is that marina or boat yard secure? We can tell you. Are the flammables stored properly? Are the boats stored properly? The slips? What about any in-the-water situation? Is the shore power properly installed?
Whatever your question, Scott Marine can survey nearly every crucial component of your marina and give you the answers you need.
We offer these survey options:
- Condition and Value Surveys
- Vessel Appraisal Report
- Damage Surveys
- Liability Survey
- On hire/Off hire
