Precision Inspections for Offshore and Tournament-Ready Vessels

At Stem to Stern Marine Surveying, LLC, we specialize in marine surveys on sport fisherman boats, providing detailed inspections for vessels built for serious anglers and offshore performance. From classic battlewagons to modern express sportfishers, our surveys ensure that your boat is safe, sound, and ready for the next run offshore.

Why Sport Fisherman Boats Require Specialized Surveys

Sportfishing boats are high-performance machines designed to handle rough seas, high speeds, and long days offshore. Their robust construction, complex systems, and powerful propulsion setups require a surveyor who understands the demands these boats face.

When performing sport fisherman surveys, we pay special attention to:

• Hull Integrity: Checking stringers, bulkheads, transom, and deck for stress cracks and water intrusion common in offshore conditions.

• Propulsion Systems: Inboard, pod-drive, or outboard configurations are inspected for alignment, vibration, and cooling issues.

• Fuel Systems: Larger fuel tanks and transfer systems receive a thorough review for safety and compliance.

• Towers, Outriggers & Hardware: We inspect tower mounts, outriggers, and deck fittings for corrosion and fatigue.

• Fishing Systems: Pumps, livewells, washdowns, and bait systems are checked for functionality.

• Electrical & Navigation Systems: From radar to sonar and GPS, we confirm operational status and condition of all electronics.

We know what to look for on a sportfish yacht — and what’s often overlooked by a general marine survey.
