Vessel watch boat inspection at a Maine marina

Marine Services

Vessel Watch

Regular inspections, written reports, and storm response — so your boat is safe when you're not there.

Licensed & Fully InsuredWritten Reports Every VisitMid-Coast Maine BasedStorm Response Included

Eyes on Your Boat. Every Visit.

Your boat, watched by someone who knows what to look for.

A failed bilge pump, a chafed dock line, a cover that's pooling water — these are the things that sink boats and cost owners thousands. They're also the things that get caught on a regular inspection.

We visit your vessel on a regular schedule, check everything that matters, and send you a written report with photos after every visit. If something needs attention, you hear from us immediately — not when you arrive at the dock.

What's Included

What Vessel Watch covers

Every visit covers the things that matter most for a boat left unattended in a Maine harbor.

Bilge Pump & Flooding Check

We inspect bilge levels and pump operation on every visit. A failed bilge pump in a Maine harbor can sink a boat fast — we catch it before it becomes a loss.

Lines, Chafe Gear & Dock Hardware

Dock lines chafe, cleats loosen, and fenders shift. We inspect and adjust on every visit so your boat stays where it belongs.

Cover & Canvas Inspection

Covers that pool water or blow loose cause damage and mold. We check covers, biminis, and canvas after every weather event and adjust as needed.

Systems & Electrical Check

Battery charge, shore power connection, running lights, and onboard electronics — we verify systems are functioning and flag anything that needs attention.

Storm Prep & Post-Storm Check

Before a significant storm we add extra lines and check all dock hardware. After the storm we inspect for damage and report back with photos.

Written Report After Every Visit

You receive a detailed written report with timestamped photos after every visit. You see exactly what we saw — no guessing from away.
