⚠️ WHO IS INSPECTING THE MAN INSPECTING YOUR YACHT?
*Every year, multi-million deals are put at risk because buyers rely on actors with irrelevant titles. Hiring an unqualified surveyor is often worse than not surveying at all – it lulls you into a false, dangerous sense of security. Let's look at cold facts and the difference between recommendations and proven competence:
❌ The Myth of the Chamber of Commerce:
Did you know that an appointment from a Chamber of Commerce does not require any rigorous written exams or practical field tests? The system is often based on simple letters of recommendation from friends in the industry. There are no formal requirements to possess modern, advanced measurement technology, and no continuous quality control is performed.
⚠️ The Uninsured Risk:
What happens if your surveyor misses that the hull is delaminated or that there is invisible moisture below deck? Most independent actors completely lack, or have severely limited, liability insurance. When the catastrophe is a fact, you stand alone with the million-dollar bill.
🛡️B.B.R.
– THE ONLY INDEPENDENT QUALITY SEAL
The National Association of Marine Surveyors (B.B.R.) is not a club – it is a regulatory body. As **Chairman of the Board of B.B.R.**, I lead the work of setting the standards that the entire Swedish surveying corps must follow.
🎖️ Strict Admission Tests:
Unlike other actors, B.B.R. requires extensive technical and legal tests to bear the title.
📄 Mandatory Liability Insurance:
Members of B.B.R. must hold comprehensive consultant liability insurance for millions. It is your security should anything unforeseen occur.
⚡ Continuous Scrutiny:
We monitor the quality of our members' work. When you hire a B.B.R. surveyor, you are hiring the highest technical and ethical level in the industry. Choose between a guess and a fully insured guarantee.
