Reliable Marine Inspections You Can Trust

At KND Marine, we provide professional vessel surveying services across the west coast of Canada. With over 20 years of maritime experience, our captain-led team ensures every inspection is performed with accuracy, integrity, and industry compliance.

 
⚓ What We Do
We offer a range of marine survey services for commercial vessels, yachts, and cargo carriers, including:

✅ Cargo Surveys
We inspect and document the condition, quantity, and safe stowage of cargo at loading and discharge. This includes damage assessments and loss prevention reports to protect stakeholders' interests.

✅ Draft Surveys
Accurate calculation of cargo loaded or discharged by measuring the vessel's draft before and after operations. Ideal for bulk carriers, this method ensures proper documentation for charterers, shippers, and receivers.

✅ On/Off-Hire Surveys
Independent surveys to verify the vessel’s condition at the beginning or end of a charter agreement, protecting both owners and charterers against disputes.

✅ Pre-Purchase Inspections
A full assessment of vessel structure, machinery, and systems to support confident investment decisions for buyers.

✅ Bunker Surveys
Verification of fuel quantities on board during bunkering to avoid claims and ensure transparency between suppliers and operators.
