The advantage of having a boat builder do a survey for you is that we will look at all the boats structure. From decks to the worm shoe.

Restoring as many boats as we have, you get to know where the potential problems that arise on wooden boats. Most wooden boats suffer from similar problems and we can help identify those issues.

What makes our survey different.

First of all we won't tell you how many fire extinguishers you have or if the light bulb in the head doesn't work. We are interested in showing you the big problems.

Survey Cost: $125.00 per hour. The bigger the boat the longer it will take. For example a 30' boat may take 4-5 hours. If a written report is necessary add $250.00.

We believe that our survey is the most valuable purchase you can do in deciding to purchase wooden boat.
