Welcome to our website. As you can clearly see, I have been involved in boating since a very early age, from rowboats to sailboats, cruisers, runabouts, high performance, houseboats, barges, tugs and T-Regs commercial vessels. In those same years, I have bought, sold, and refitted various boats, while cruising or sailing on foreign and domestic oceans, lakes and rivers.
Gharst Marine Services provides competent marine Condition & Value surveys, acceptable to any lender or insurer. Every survey will include an examination of the hull and deck structures, electrical systems, fuel systems, plumbing systems, mechanical systems, fire protection and those components and installation procedures mandated by U.S. Coast Guard regulations and American Boat & Yacht Council standards.
