"John has the eagle-eye and expertise that you'd hope for in a marine surveyor. He took a lot of the anxiety out of the boat-buying experience by giving me both a clear picture of the boat's condition and a prioritized roadmap for improvements."

"I hired John to do a survey on a 40ft Catalina. I found him to be very thorough. I do not believe there was a compartment on the boat that he did not open and empty the contents to inspect. Don’t worry he also puts everything back in its place. You will also find he does not sit still and is always looking at something on the boat. If I ever purchase another boat in the area I will certainly call John again to look it over.

Thanks again"

"We hired John Hughes to do a marine survey on a 1989 Gozzard 36 that we were anticipating on purchasing but we wanted to make sure that all systems were working properly, and that the hull was sound. John took the time to completely inspect all areas of the boat and was great at pointing out items of concern. In addition to pointing out areas of concern that may need attention or repair, he also gave his opinion of the good things on the boat. John’s report on the condition of the boat was very helpful in us making a decision as to whether to move forward with the purchase or not. We would highly recommend John Hughes as a marine surveyor."
