Athens Yacht Surveyors

The Greek metropolis of Athens offers the best facilities, a thriving cultural scene, and proximity to some of the world’s finest sailing grounds, making it an ideal base for motor and sailing yachts and a favoured winter berth for some of the world’s largest superyachts. From the marinas of Alimos, Flisvos and Zea to the commercial port of Piraeus, Athens is the gateway to the Aegean and the Cyclades, and our surveyors provide independent, engineering-led technical services throughout the region.

Owners have travelled to the Greek islands of Mykonos, Santorini and Corfu for decades, and the concentration of yachts moving through Athens makes it a natural centre for surveys, refits and technical oversight. As experienced Athens yacht surveyors and marine surveyors, we provide the full range of ACP services, including pre-purchase and condition surveys, valuation surveys for banks and insurers, damage inspections, underwater hull inspections and non-destructive testing, thermal imaging, and paint and coating inspections. Because every discipline is executed in-house, owners receive a single, consistent standard of reporting supported by concise commentary and clear photographic evidence.

The eastern Mediterranean climate places specific demands on a yacht, with high summer temperatures, strong ultraviolet exposure, warm saline water and extended cruising seasons accelerating the wear of coatings, seals, cooling systems and structural components. Our surveyors know precisely where to look for the early signs of corrosion, osmosis, moisture ingress and system fatigue, ensuring owners receive a realistic account of a vessel’s true condition.

Surveying a yacht in Athens is simple, as our surveyors frequently attend the area for boat sales and purchases. For buyers, we provide transactional clarity and constructive resolutions that allow brokers, lawyers and prospective owners to complete a transaction with confidence, while existing owners benefit from our support with refit planning, insurance and warranty matters and compliance, drawing on a twenty-year database of surveys, new builds and refit projects.
