MARITIME SURVEYS
Marine Surveyor in Palm Beach
ON HIRE & OFF HIRE CONDITION SURVEYS
These are surveys of vessels undertaken either before the vessel is delivered into a charter, or redelivered from a charter. Delivery/ReDelivery (On/Off Hire) surveys are done for Loss Control in supervision of loading/discharging of petroleum and other products by tankers and barges. The On/Off Hire Survey report will include a detailed description of a vessel's cargo spaces/deck area structural condition, bunkers on board, listing of vessel's statutory certificates, portable securing equipment, examination of open or closed Stevedore damages, etc. Survey will also include bunker certification to DLSOP or last sea station, for either beginning or ending of a charter.
VESSEL CONDITION/VETTING SURVEYS
Captain Frehm will perform a complete assessment of the vessel's condition and its valuation appraisal, with objective parameters and tools procedures based on market information analysis, which can help Charterers and Owners for their Sale/Purchase decisions. Complete photographic records and well supported information make our Certificates valuable documents that can better protect the interest of both the valuer and any party relying on it.
