Capt. Moro LLC. Marine Surveyors specialize in the surveying of small to medium size pleasure and commercial passenger carrying vessels and yachts, fiberglass and wood power boats. Our surveys encompass fire and safety systems, hull and deck structures, propulsion and steering, electrical and electronics, sanitation, domestic systems, marine equipment, ground tackle and rigging. All surveys are performed in cognizance of the rules, regulations and standards of the USCG, ABYC and NFPA.

To complete a full pre-purchase survey it is normally necessary to visually inspect the vessel on land and in the water, and conduct a sea trial. Sea trials involve assessing the performance of propulsion and steering systems, at idle through full load conditions. Depending on the vessel's age and type it may also be necessary to perform some or all of the following tests: percussion, moisture, compression, oil analysis, cooling, electrical circuitry and corrosion analysis.

Each survey report details the inspection findings through incorporated digital photos, completed checklists and condition comments. In addition, a Remarks & Recommendations section outlines the necessary repairs and equipment upgrades to comply with the above mentioned condition and safety standards. The fair market and replacement values are also stated in the survey report.

The following outlines the basic parameters of our marine surveys:

• Condition of the Hull
