A general overview of the vessel\u2019s condition to ascertain the current seaworthiness and level of maintenance required to maintain or achieve a good seaworthy standard. The report will clearly highlight those areas requiring further investigation or testing. The survey will not look to access those areas that are not readily accessible for visual inspection. No samples will be taken for external laboratory analysis. A full breakdown of the scope can be found here: <\/span>Class I Scope<\/span>
