Maple Marine is an independent marine survey company with an international outlook. We have a reputation for performing thorough and pragmatic inspections. Our role is to assess the boat in an objective, constructive, fair and independent way. We have experience in compliance on both complex and simple craft, and both workboat and leisure craft.
We can undertake small commercial vessel compliance (Coding) surveys for the following certifying authorities :
Working in the Marine Industry since 1988, and on small craft since 2007, our surveyor has been elected a fellow member of all three major surveyor associations: Royal Institution of Naval Architects, Yacht Designers and Surveyors (YDSA), and the International Institution of Marine Surveying (IIMS).
“Martin came highly recommended by a professional sailing colleague of mine, and his ‘press’ was fully justified! Martin is that rare combination of professionalism and approachability. He conducted the survey on our RIB in a very thorough and constructive manner, helping with solutions to the problems which he identified with our boat, rather than simply putting a ‘cross’ in the relevant box. He was both knowledgeable and intelligent in his assessment of the issues, applying good old common sense in his application of the MCA coding specifications to the boat.
Steve Le Butt – Principal – Spirit Sailing
I would recommend him to anyone wanting a helpful and constructive survey of their boat, whilst ensuring the the vessel complies with the relevant regulations.”
We aim to work with you to achieve compliance to the rules as written, in a prompt manner. We know that being able to use your boat commercially is important to you.
“Very impressed with Martin his explaining of everything on the day was good and clear taking the time to explain the details and the process. The best part for me was that he rang up before the Survey was sent to explain the key findings. A very professional and knowledgeable person who I would recommend to everyone. Thanks Martin for making the process a pleasure”
