Owners ask

Finding the right surveyor.

How do I find a boat surveyor near me?

Type the town or village where your boat is kept, or use your location. The list shows the surveyors who work nearby. Choose a boat and a survey above the search to narrow it.

Is a marine surveyor the same as a boat surveyor?

Yes. Marine surveyor is the name of the profession, and many surveyors describe themselves by the boats they know best. Each listing shows the boats a surveyor covers: sailing yachts, motor boats, narrowboats and inland craft, or RIBs.

How do I find a narrowboat surveyor?

Search near the boat and choose narrowboats and inland craft. Most narrowboat surveys look at the hull out of the water, on a dry dock or a slipway, so ask the surveyor about booking one.

Find a narrowboat surveyor
How do I find a yacht surveyor?

Search near the boat and choose sailing yachts or motor boats. A yacht survey usually takes place ashore and often includes a short sea trial. Ask each surveyor what the fee covers.

What does a listing show?

The town a surveyor works from, the boats and surveys they cover, and where known their qualifications, experience and the regions they also cover. Contact details appear after a quick check.

Can I find a YDSA surveyor?

Some surveyors name their professional body, such as YDSA, in their qualifications. The body's own register confirms a membership.

Are the surveyors independent?

Yes. Each surveyor is an independent professional. You agree the survey, the fee and the terms with them directly.

Are you a marine surveyor?

Apply to be listed. It is free, takes about two minutes, and you can change or remove your listing at any time.

The directory lists surveyors based in the United Kingdom, Jersey, Guernsey and the Isle of Man for now.
