Hull and machinery survey in Angola

Independent condition and damage surveys of vessels, small craft and fishing vessels, for owners, underwriters and claims handlers.

When a vessel is damaged, or its condition needs to be established, owners and insurers need a surveyor who can describe what happened, how far the damage extends and what is affected. Shore & Sea Survey carries out hull and machinery surveys and condition surveys, including for small craft and fishing vessels.

Each report is based on a physical inspection, with photographs and measurements, and is written independently of any party.
