Step off the boat with the report already written.

Marine Surveyors Pro is the iPad-first survey app for condition & valuation, insurance, damage and cargo work. Your checklist, photos and findings become a client-ready report while you inspect, not three evenings later at your desk.

Or read a finished report first: sailing catamaran, sportfish, trawler.

Built by surveyors, for surveyors

The same app on a phone: one checklist item rated Fair, with its note, recommendation and ABYC reference.
The survey day

One job, start to finish, in one place.

Most survey software is a report template. This follows the job the way you actually work it: from the phone call, to the bilge, to the emailed report, to the same boat next year.

01
Before you board

The boat is half set up before you arrive.

Pick the make and model and the app fills in the particulars, the engines she usually carries, and what to watch for on that model at that age: saildrive diaphragm intervals, rigging due by years not looks, extinguisher date rules.

Surveyed her before? Resurvey carries the boat forward and brings last time’s findings along as a review list. Conditions, notes and photos start fresh.

02
Aboard

One tap per item. The wording is already there.

Rate it, shoot it, move on. Every one of the 232 items offers wording for a clean inspection and for its common deficiencies, each carrying the recommendation and the ABYC or CFR reference it rests on. Tap one, then edit it like your own, because it is.

At the dock

Press Generate Report. That is the step.

Findings sort themselves by priority, each with what you found and what you recommend side by side. The cost worksheet totals parts and labor, the valuation states fair market value and replacement cost, and every photo lands in an index with its caption.

If you want help with the narrative, the AI drafts it from what you recorded, and proofreading catches the typos before your client does. Nothing changes until you say so.

Delivered

Send a link, not a 40 MB attachment.

Create a private, read-only link your client opens in any browser. You choose when it expires and you can revoke it. Or email the report straight from the app, print it, or save the PDF. Your letterhead, credentials and signature are already on it, and your invoice can ride along.

Next season

The work you have done keeps working.

Issue a compliance re-inspection letter from the original findings. Pull up any past survey in seconds. Bring your back catalog in by importing old PDF reports, or photograph a hand-filled field form and let the app read it. Your own phrases follow you to every device.

Where boats are

Made for boatyards, not offices.

Marinas are where signal goes to die. The app was designed around that from the first line.

No signal, no problem

The installed iPad app opens and runs with zero signal, saving to the device and uploading by itself when you are back in range. It is not in the App Store yet. Until it is, the web app needs a connection to open, then keeps working if the signal drops.

Your surveys are yours

Only you can see your work, and your clients only through links you create. No advertising trackers, no third-party analytics, and we never sell data. Delete your account and it is gone.

Standards as guidelines

ABYC, 33 and 46 CFR, and NFPA 302 are in the app by code and title. You decide what to cite on each finding, and the report states how standards were used.

Pricing

One price. As many surveys as you can run.

$49.99per surveyor
per month

Start with 14 days free — every feature switched on, no card, nothing to cancel. After that it is one flat monthly price, plus sales tax where it applies. No charge per report, no limit on photos, no setup fee and no contract.

Questions

Straight answers.

Do I need an internet connection on the boat?

In the installed iPad app, no: it lives on the device, so it opens with no signal, saves as you work, and syncs when you reconnect. That app is not in the App Store yet. Until it is, you use the web app, which has to load while you have a connection and then keeps working if the signal drops. A connection is always needed for share links, emailing a report, importing a PDF, and the AI features.

Does it work with an iPad and Apple Pencil?

It was designed touch-first for the iPad. Any notes field takes Apple Pencil handwriting through Scribble, you can dictate instead of typing, and you sign reports with a finger or the Pencil. It also runs on a phone and on a desktop browser.

Can I bring in my old survey reports?

Yes. Import a PDF of a past report and the app turns it into a new pre-filled survey: vessel particulars, machinery, findings and narrative. Nothing is trusted automatically. You review every field against the original before you rely on it.

Which standards does it reference?

41 references across the ABYC A, E, H and P series, 33 and 46 CFR, and NFPA 302, each by code and title. Built-in findings suggest the reference that governs them, and you choose what appears on your report.

Who can see my surveys and my clients’ details?

You. Database rules restrict every surveyor’s account to its own surveys. Clients see a report only through a link you create, and you can revoke it. The full policy is on the privacy page.

What does it cost?

$49.99 a month per surveyor, for unlimited surveys, reports and photos. The first 14 days are free, with every feature switched on, up to three surveys, and no card required. After that your surveys stay yours to read and print, and creating or editing new work resumes once your account is activated. Reports print clean during the trial. Activation switches on share links and client email. Pay by credit card, debit card or bank transfer, plus sales tax where it applies. Cancel yourself at any time from Account → Manage billing; it takes effect at the end of the month you have paid for, and your surveys stay yours to read and print.
