Yacht & Small Craft Damage Assessment & Appraisal
Damage Assessment & Appraisal
BOATDAMAGE.COM, LLC specializes in providing independent and impartial assessment services for recreational watercraft of all kinds. Our extensive knowledge and experience enable us to evaluate all forms of damage, ranging from single-seat PWCs to luxury motor and sailing yachts.
Our expertise extends to all types of incidents, including thefts, collisions, fires, sinkings, lightning, mechanical breakdowns, hauling/launching, freeze damage, weather/storm, and any other types of failures or incidents. We can review repair estimates to ensure fairness and loss relation, and we can also prepare damage appraisals when estimates are unavailable. Additionally, we offer pre or post-incident valuation of the watercraft, commonly known as ACV and salvage value, to provide our clients with a comprehensive and precise understanding of their property's worth.
It is important to note that unlike typical "marine survey" services, such as "pre-purchase" or "insurance" condition and value surveys, which may create a conflict of interest, our focus is solely on providing objective and independent damage assessments. We are committed to providing professional and dependable services to our clients. We ensure that all assessments and appraisals are conducted with the utmost professionalism and expertise so that you can rely on the accuracy of our evaluations.
We hope that our services will prove valuable to you and we look forward to the opportunity to serve you.
