TYPES OF SURVEYS (SAMS)
Pre-Purchase: a comprehensive inspection of a new or used vessel for condition and overall operation. This covers structural integrity, electrical systems, cosmetic appearance, electronics, overall maintenance as well as out of the water inspection and sea trials. For sailboats an inspection of the standing rig as well as the running rigging.
Insurance survey: performed so that the insurance company can determine or not the vessel is an acceptable risk. Usually conducted on older boats with a need for a fair market value. Does not usually call for a haul out or sea trial.
Appraisal Inspection: similar to an insurance survey with a focus on the Fair Market Value.
Damage Inspection: is performed to assess the extent of damage, recommend repairs, estimate repair cost and if requested a possible cause.
​All surveys are conducted by Captain Thomas A Martin Accredited Marine Surveyor, SAMS
