Scope of Services
The vessel was examined by the surveyor and/or surveyor’s agents from all accessible areas of the interior without removal of secured panels, destructive testing or disassembly. The hull bottom laminate, plating and/or planking was examined by percussion sounding and visual inspection only. No moisture content readings were taken, and no destructive testing was performed. The surveyor may have used a moisture meter if/when they deemed it useful or if specifically requested by client. Exterior hardware was visually examined for damage and drive components were tested by sight only. The inspection of engines, generators, machinery and related mechanical systems is not within the scope of this survey. Only a brief cursory inspection of the machinery was conducted, and no opinion of their overall condition was formed. Client shall retain the services of a qualified mechanic, engine surveyor or other expert to inspect such engine, generators, machinery and related mechanical systems. Tankage was inspected from visible surfaces only and no opinion was rendered as to their overall condition. On sailing vessels, the rig was not inspected aloft, nor were sails inspected unless they were visible during a sea trial. Client shall retain the services of a qualified rig surveyor or other expert to inspect sails, rigging and equipment. The electrical system was visually inspected where accessible, and electronic and electrical components powered only with permission of or in the presence of the vessel’s owner or agent. No in-depth testing or examination of the electrical system or electric schematic was conducted. Specifications were taken from published sources, measurements if made, should be considered approximate. The recommendations are based on federal and state regulations, industry standards, and/or surveyor‘s own personal experience. The market value is based on research of available new/used comparable vessels, with consideration of geographic area where the vessel is located and reported sale prices where available. The surveyor will refer to and may reference CFRs, NFPA and ABYC recommendations (and/or other services) as the surveyor deems reasonable but not all regulations and recommendations will be applied nor should this report be relied upon as full compliance with the aforementioned entities. Every vessel inspection is different, and limitations may alter the scope of this survey, some limitations will be implied in the text of the report and some will be explicitly detailed. A Marine Survey Agreement which is reviewed and signed by the client details the terms governing this marine survey.

SUMMARY |
The vessel is a limited production steel long range motor vessel equipped with a diesel engine and a diesel generator. There is an AC generator connected by a belt to the main engine and a propeller shaft and propeller connected via a transmission to the generator. The vessel was built in Whangarei, New Zealand to a Watson & Sons design. The clients purchased the vessel in 2011 in the Chesapeake Bay area and report that the vessel was imported into the USA in 2009. The machine systems are original. The vessel has had significant upgrades which began in 2014 with solar panels, in 2017 a Kabola boiler hot water heating system, tender, teak decks, dive compressor and two refrigeration compressors and in 2021 service to the propulsion components including new propeller shafts and bearings, replacement rudder bearings and seals and maintenance service on the fin stabilizers. The reported approximate range of the vessel is 3,500 nautical miles. The vessel was inspected while afloat and while hauled. The clients live aboard and actively use the vessel, they operated the vessel to the boatyard prior to the survey and the engine and generator were briefly test operated during the survey. The vessel is structurally and mechanically sound. The vessel is actively and well maintained. Captain Herndon comes from the commercial shipping industry as a mariner and the clients are extremely familiar with the vessel and its systems. The vessel is equipped with significant spare parts and tools. The vessel is well suited for its intended purpose as a long range cruising vessel. |
Overall Summary: Good – Excellent |
Standard form key: We use subsection and overall ratings to summarize conditions found, based upon their appearance. Ratings include: Not examined, Not applicable, Faulty, Marginal, Satisfactory, Good, Excellent.
VALUES
ACTUAL CASH VALUE | NEW REPLACEMENT VALUE | INVESTMENT |
Removed | Removed |
N/A |
The actual cash value is the value that our research approximates the selling price of this vessel should be, at the time and place of our inspection. Consideration is given to vessel’s condition, geographic location, published listings and guides, comparable sales and listings, and market conditions. The new replacement value is the cost of this or a similar, new vessel, comparably equipped. The investment is the reported investment including purchase price and significant upgrades. No values include maintenance costs, storage or tax. The most relevant data found while researching the value is included below. We primarily use market value analysis methodology for determination of value.
Explanation of value opinion: The value is primarily based on the reported sale prices from Soldboats.com and the asking prices found by the undersigned and provided by the clients on Yachtworld.com below. The vessel is a steel trawler that was well designed and built and is in good – excellent condition. The vessel compares well with the top end of the trawler market, with a slight diminishment due to the relatively unknown builder in the local market.

RECOMMENDATIONS |
These recommendations are the surveyor’s ideas and suggestions for addressing deficiencies with damaged or suspect components or systems found during survey or general improvements. The primary recommendations address safety items, structural issues, operational issues or deficiencies which the surveyor determines are of greater importance or more expense than secondary deficiencies. For instance, items that pose a risk to passenger safety or immediate property damage are listed under primary deficiencies and cosmetic concerns are addressed under secondary deficiencies. Most of the recommendations have been addressed in the comments and usually they are discussed at the time of the inspection. |
