    I used Ocean Marine when purchasing my 1954 K-38 sailboat, "Valentine".
    They did a fantastic job. They were honest, fair and very professional. Scheduling the appointment was very easy as Tonya in the office is very prompt,
    … More available and professional.
    They sent their wood boat expert Jeff. He is a great guy and extremely knowledgable. Has experience running boatyard. Fiberglass, steel and wood knowledge...
    He went above and beyond, and stopped to explain what he saw along the way... Will use them again and highly recommend!
    Excellent group of marine professionals and knowledge.

    George and the team were fantastic!! As first time boat buyers we had a ton of questions and George took as much time as needed to answer them for us.
    An incredible value add was that he took the time to explain things that we didn’t even
    … More know to ask questions about. Going above and beyond our expectations.
    The entire process was very smooth, from booking to final report, we were updated every step of the way.
    Would very highly recommend using Ocean Marine Surveyors!
  • Avatar Zach N ★★★★★ 5 months ago
    I had a great experience with Jeff from Ocean Marine Surveyors. He did the pre-purchase survey of my 1984 Islander Bahama 30, Carol Marie, in July 2022. He arrived twenty minutes early and was very professional. He also came out on only … More a few day’s notice. Jeff did a review of all of the systems on the boat and prepared a three tiered report on the findings with comments as well as a separate survey for the insurer. I felt that the price he arrived at was fair and very close to what I’d worked out with the seller. He also provided the survey and report in a very timely manner. The survey was on a Friday and I had the survey and report on Monday, which was critical as far as getting insurance and slip applications finished up on time. I highly recommend Jeff and Ocean Marine Surveyors if you have the need for a survey.

    Great company. Really helpful when I called the office. Jeff showed up early, did a thorough check of my boat and got the report sent when promised.
    I’m a happy customer and would use them again if I ever buy another boat.
  • Avatar Phil Templer ★★★★★ 3 months ago
    Jeff Broder was the boat surveyor at Ocean Marine assigned to us for our new purchase boat inspection last month. Jeff was professional, knowledgeable and thorough. We were provided with a detailed survey report that was understandable … More to us as well as acceptable to the marina we were looking to berth the boat at. He also was easy to talk to and provided some tips regarding the boat's maintenance and operation. I would definitely recommend Jeff and Ocean Marine Surveyors.

    Ocean Marine was a great experience. They were prompt, courteous, patient, and thorough. I didn’t know much about boats, and they came out and answered all my questions and concerns.
