The Marine Survey Business

Written for both the aspiring, novice and experienced surveyor, Surveying Fiberglass Power Boats provides a foundation of essentials for anyone who wants to begin a marine surveying career, or just hone up on one's skills and knowledge.

The profession of marine surveying is not just about boats; it's about people and boats. That's why four of its 18 chapters are devoted to the practicalities of the business side of surveying.
