Certified Master Marine Surveyor: Buzzards Bay & South Coast
Comprehensive vessel surveying across the southern coastal boundary of the state. Mass Maritime Marine provides completely independent, uncompromised boat surveying services throughout the entire Buzzards Bay estuary system. Given the shifting sandbars, strong tidal flows, and heavy coastal usage of the area, powerboats and sailboats deserve a rigorous, detail-oriented condition assessment to protect both your safety and your financial investment.
With my background as an active-status USCG Licensed Master Mariner, I deliver an uncompromised, comprehensive report for making an informed decision about the vessel — a report accepted by banks for lending and by insurance underwriters. My surveys are widely recognized and accepted by the National Marine Lenders Association (NMLA) and the American Institute of Marine Underwriters (AIMU).

Schedule your Fall River, New Bedford & Dartmouth survey
From New Bedford’s working waterfront to the cruising boats of Padanaram and Wareham, I survey the commercial and recreational fleets of Buzzards Bay to the same standard: a comprehensive, accredited report that actually means something to a bank or an underwriter — not a generic checklist that rubber-stamps the sale. Get a licensed, certified professional in your corner for your pre-purchase or insurance decision. And as a third party, I will also review any yard maintenance and repairs and report directly to you. Consultations are free.
