Our certified surveyor will examine the vessel in detail to identify any deficiencies. You can then make an informed decision about the purchase and/or price.
Don’t dive into buying a boat before talking to us first. We can provide an independent “Walk through” assessment to establish the true condition of a vessel “Through a Marine Surveyor’s eyes”, prior to you making an offer and signing a contract to purchase it.

AMS qualified staff can assess your boats and operation in order to identify risks and develop a tailored safety management plan for your operation.
