Marine Engine Surveyor Services: I use Caterpillar, Cummins, MTU and Volvo certified software on newer engines, for engine ECU history as well as data capture and analysis from the survey sea trials.
Sport Fish Boats, Trawlers, Express Yachts, Large Yachts and most older mechanical diesel engines including Caterpillar, Cummins, Volvo, Perkins, Lehman, John Deere, etc.
A complete analysis of the generator(s) on a vessel. This involves a full electrical load test of maximum amperage of what the boat is consuming.
If you are interested in reviewing a sample survey, send an email and I will forward you a recent report (excluding proprietary information).
The scope of work on a typical marine engine survey will include a full inspection, evaluation, and a detailed written report covering essential components to provide a complete picture of the engine’s condition:
Engine Components and Accessories: A thorough inspection of the engines along with all components and accessories to confirm operational readiness and quality.
Transmission and Related Accessories: Evaluation of the transmission and associated accessories for smooth, efficient function and durability.
Onboard Generators: A full assessment of onboard generators to check reliability, power output, and maintenance needs.
Software Data Download and Performance Testing: Utilizing software data downloads for diagnostics and performance testing to deliver a precise engine health check.
Sea Trials and Engine Operation Testing: Conducting sea trials for underway testing and operation of engine and controls, assessing performance under real operating conditions.
Cosmetic Fit and Finish: A detailed review of the engine’s cosmetic fit and finish to evaluate any aesthetic or structural concerns impacting value.
Each step provides essential insights and a comprehensive report, giving buyers and owners confidence in the engine survey results.
