Before you buy a vessel, have it inspected by someone who works for you, not the broker or the seller. We inspect ships of every type, anywhere in the world. Inspections are led by Dheeraj R Patil, a Chief Engineer.
Vessel type, age, where it can be inspected and your timeline. Use the form below.
Led by Dheeraj. Where your budget is limited, we can appoint a local inspector at the port.
You receive the inspection findings so you can negotiate, buy, or walk away.
Typical scope: hull and structure, main engine and auxiliaries, class and statutory certificates, maintenance records, cargo holds or tanks, and safety and navigation equipment. The scope is agreed with you before we start.
After the purchase: we can also carry out the repairs and upgrades the vessel needs and deliver it to you. See Vessel Acquisition and Dry Docking.
Tell us what you are looking at and the timeline you are working with. Dheeraj reviews every inspection enquiry personally before we respond.
We will review the vessel details and come back to you, usually within one working day.
We are building a worldwide panel of marine inspectors to carry out pre-purchase inspections for vessel buyers. If you are a master, chief engineer, surveyor or naval architect with inspection experience, please apply.

This is empanelment only. Joining the panel does not guarantee any work, and Seavantek charges no fee to join.
