Time and additional expense can be saved by preparing the vessel for inspection and making her more accessible. Arrange to present a clean, shipshape boat, and have all papers and miscellaneous gear ready. If applicable, you will need to make arrangements with the marina to haul the vessel for bottom inspection, and retain a captain for sea trials. Lockers and cabin areas should be cleared of all miscellaneous gear. The surveyor may request minor dismantling of interior ceilings, headliners, flooring, etc. in order to gain access to areas that have indicated concern.  Any dismantling and re-installation of parts should be performed by qualified personnel and is the responsibility of the person ordering the survey. ONCE YOU RETAIN THE SURVEYOR, HE OR SHE WORKS ONLY FOR YOU AND REPORTS TO NO ONE ELSE. THE SURVEYOR IS THERE TO PROTECT YOUR INTERESTS! QUALITY SURVEYS, PUTTING MY CUSTOMERS FIRST, ALWAYS.
