How may I help?

Welcome, and thanks for visiting my website. My whole life has been centred around boats so I have expertise in various areas.  Please don't hesitate to give me a call to discuss your needs, the chances are if I can't help, I might know someone that can.

Marine Surveys

The majority of my work at this time is as a marine surveyor. Primarily for pre-purchase and insurance surveys on the West Coast of Scotland.
I really enjoy helping buyers understand the condition of a boat they are looking at, and satisfying the needs of boat safety for insurance purposes. I also enjoy being able to help clients deliver their boats or skipper for sea trials when necessary as well.

I am an accredited member of the YDSA, an affiliate of the IIMS, and of course, I am fully insured to offer Pre-Purchase, Insurance, and Valuation surveys on private and commercial yachts up to 30mtrs LOA.

Master (500 tons)

Having worked as a yacht captain (and often engineer) for over 25 years, I have been fortunate to work on vessels of all shapes and sizes in many roles and situations. I am commercially licenced to 500 gt. Before starting surveying, I worked for six years as a relief/delivery captain for commercial charter yachts in Scotland,  10 years prior to that I was employed by a private yacht owner as his marine consultant, involved in the purchase/sale and management of his various superyachts in the Mediterranean.

Marine Electrics

I have always been interested in electrics and electronics and have upgraded and completely rewired some yachts. I enjoy staying up to date with modern equipment and improving yacht systems generally. Of course, I am also fully insured for this work.
