Regardless of the affiliation or society to which a surveyor claims to be a member of, the most important features to look for in a surveyor is someone who has a set of trained eyes and an open mind. Your surveyor(s) should understand and be able to test service systems, electrical systems, engine(s), and aux equipment. The surveyor should know and understand how cargo is handled and the chain of custody in order to make sure that you interests are represented. When your survey tells you that something “appears” to be in a certain condition, your paying for guess work that you could have performed yourself. You want to hear a valued opinion and not a guess.
