What Most Surveyors Do
Basic checklists, quick walkarounds, and templated reports, enough to satisfy minimum
requirements but not enough to uncover real risk.
What Good Surveyors Do
They go further with tools like moisture meters and partial system checks. Better effort, but
critical components and deeper issues are still missed.

Tips From A Marine Surveyor For Spring Launch Happy Cruising!
As spring approaches, and preparations begin for launch, take a look at safety gear. Firstly, is everything aboard for your crew in working order or up to date? In addition, if something needs to be replaced, replace it with a new replacement?
Check life jackets (PFD's) for tears. Also, clean or dry material and that can be stowed in a readily accessible location.
If whistles or PLB's (Personal Locator Beacons) are fitted, do they work?
Have you considered manually inflating the automatic inflatable PFD's?
Don't forget: Test all Smoke, CO2, Gas, and High Water Bilge alarms.
