pdf- survey sheet ?

[rusobr2]

i'm looking for some "pdf" survey forms on internet or something that you already possess--i don't have anything against marine surveyor's , but this is not a licensed position in the state of oregon--i'v been trying to explain this to my insurance comp. for a year now--so with my vast knowledge in the boating mkt. along with 20 yrs. working in the ship yrds. not to mention --working for a broker in gig hbr.and in tac. washington area for 6 yrs. (doing repairs,and restorations) . i think i can assess my own boat---the contacts i have made here in oregon to survey my boat are outrageous--first i have to haul the boat at least 150 miles in any given direction,and then pay anywhere between 4 to 600 bucks--my next option is to go to www. or.secretary of state.com,and get my own license as a marine surveyor--not cool !!

thanks,steven

I think you can find some forms on the boatus web site.

To buy insurance on a boat older than about 5 years, most insurance companies require a "Condition and Value" survey done by a marine surveyor who has either a SAMS or NAMS certification.

This isn't so much about your competence as it is about protecting themselves from fraud. The insurance underwriter will want to know the asset he is insuring is sea worthy and free from serious or safety related defects and that it is indeed worth what you are trying to insure it for.......but, maybe you can get someone to write a policy on the boat without a survey.

I got my insurance through Progressive and they required no survey what so ever. I'm in Oregon too. I have an 89 sundancer 300. thought I'd mention it to ya.

You can also get a free safety check here

This safety check is not a survey. You will get a signed form at the end.
