Full Hull & Osmosis Survey £100*

This winter Hamble Marine Surveys is running a promotion offering a full Hull and Osmosis Survey for only £100*.

Julian Smith of Hamble Marine Surveys has just returned from Montenegro having been commissioned to survey a 72ft yacht. The brand new Porto Montenegro complex offering berthing for yacht from small daysailers to mega yachts provided a suitable location for the survey to take place. A 2 hour flights to Dubrovnic and a short 50 minute transfer to Tivat is making this region very popular with boat owners and as a charter base.

Following a recent survey on a motorboat it has come to light that some craft are prone to inward deflection of the hull when lifted using a crane with twin slings without the use of spreader bars. The effect on the hull especially on modern very beamy craft can be to 'crush' the hull inwards. This problem is not new, but with the design of modern wide beam motorboats and yachts the inward force on the hull is greater and can result in structural damage.

Farr 60 surveyed

With only a few more weeks before this beautiful example of a Najad bulit Farr designed deck saloon starts her delivery to the Caribbean, Hamble Marine Surveys were commissioned to conduct a Condition Survey on her to understand the scope of current and future maintenance obligations and to advise on her preparation for the forthcoming Trans-Atlantic crossing. We wish her owner and family all the very best for this coming season.
