Surveying

Pratt Naval Architecture surveys power and sailing pleasure and small commercial vessels of Steel, Aluminium, Glass and Fibre-Reinforced Plastics  and Timber construction.

We are unusual in being able to bring into play both Naval Architect and Marine Surveyor skillsets during a survey. This gives an appreciation of technical and design-related issues which might not be recognised without that additional Naval Architecture qualification and experience.
