⚖️ Independent Marine Surveys & Technical Due Diligence in South Africa

Uncompromising technical evidence for luxury yacht acquisitions and new build supervision in Cape Town.

South Africa—particularly the industrial maritime hubs of Cape Town and the Western Cape—is world-renowned for producing some of the finest luxury catamarans and custom superyachts on the market. Vessels built here are designed to conquer the brutal waters of the Southern Ocean. However, navigating a multi-million dollar acquisition or a complex new build project in South Africa requires more than just trust. It requires absolute, independent engineering authority.

Operating globally from our headquarters in Sweden, we provide high-tier fly-in marine surveying and technical risk management specifically tailored for international buyers, financial institutions, and family offices.

​

🛑 New Build Supervision & Milestones Certification

Building a custom yacht or a high-end catamaran in South Africa is an investment that spans months or years. To protect your capital, you cannot rely solely on the shipyard’s internal quality control. We fly in at critical production stages to inspect, verify, and certify structural and mechanical milestones before funds are released.

  • 🛡️ Laminating & Structural Core Inspection: Verification of post-curing, resin infusion quality, and kels/bulkheads bonding using advanced Non-Destructive Testing (NDT).

  • ⚙️ Engineering & System Integration: Comprehensive diagnostics of electrical grids, complex hydraulic systems, and propulsion alignment.

​​

🔬 Pre-Purchase Surveys for Premium Acquisitions

Purchasing a pre-owned luxury vessel located in South Africa requires zero-tolerance diagnostics. We provide bank-grade technical due diligence to ensure you are not inheriting structural fatigue or hidden mechanical liabilities.

  • 🔍 Forensic Hull Diagnostics: Advanced ultrasonic testing and thermal imaging to detect core-crushing delamination or micro-blistering.

  • 📊 ECU & Engine Analytics: Deep-level digital interrogation of marine propulsion systems, monitoring internal parameters and load history.

  • ⚓ Rigging & Ocean Readiness: Structural stress analysis of chainplates, mast sections, and heavy-duty steering gear required for blue-water deployment.

  • ​

🛡️ Bank-Grade Technical Authority

We act as your uncompromised eyes and ears on-site in South Africa, completely independent of local brokers, builders, and registration agents.
