From Technical Knowledge to Your Hands

“For more than three decades I have inspected hundreds of boats: from 8-metre sailboats to 60-metre superyachts. Each inspection has taught me something new about where to look, what signs to look and how to distinguish a well-maintained boat from a problematic one.

This guide condenses all that knowledge into a practical document that you can take with you to any shipyard, port or boat. It is the same methodology I use in my professional expertise, adapted for anyone to apply it.”
