Condition and Value

Ahab Marine Services offers a complete inspection of your vessel and all it's equipment, we can also include a sea trial.
The report is useful for pre-purchase assessment, insurance, appraisal, financing, etc.

Our analytical inspection breaks problems into three categories:
  • Required - Must repair = illegal or unsafe.
  • Essential - Should repair = affects the value of the boat and is out of current standards.
  • Desirable - Might repair = convenience or aesthetics.
We determine the vessel's current condition, its fair market value as it sits and after suggested corrections.
