Marine survey in the Caribbean
We work with insurance, freight and pleasure craft professionals and individuals to assist you with all your needs.
Interventions in all areas of marine survey
But why should you contact a marine survey firm? There are many answers! First of all, by contacting CMCS, you secure the services of a trained surveyor with more than thirty years of survey in the marine field.
This experience and these skills allow us to offer our services in many areas.
We work alongside insurance companies to draw up claims and damage reports, to assess the extent of the damage, its causes and origins, as well as the costs of repair.
Our technical survey allows you to accurately estimate the condition of your boat, engine, hull, equipment, detect any problem, and more.
Our pre-transactional survey secures your transactions and allows you to know precisely the condition and value of a vessel before purchasing it or putting it up for sale.
With our pre-insurance survey, we draw up the Assessment Report which estimates the value and condition of your vessel, and which is mandatory to insure your property.
We are with individuals and professionals to provide them with our technical insight, or provide them with support in the event of legal proceedings.
We also intervene in the event of a dispute upon receipt of goods transported by any mode of transport.
From Guadeloupe to the entire Caribbean
Bounded by the arc of the Greater Antilles to the north and that of the Lesser Antilles to the south-east, the Caribbean comprises no less than 700 islands, islets, cays and reefs, spread over 19 countries.
It is a complex and unique region. A short crossing allows you to go from a French island, such as Guadeloupe, Martinique or Saint-Martin, to a British island, such as the Cayman Islands. Or a Dutch island (the Netherlands has six islands in the Caribbean) or American (Puerto Rico, among others).
The region also has many independent nations – Cuba, Haiti, Jamaica, the Dominican Republic, Trinidad and Tobago …
And all this is just a little taste of the complexity of the region!
This geographic complexity is coupled with the complexity of marine traffic. The region is very busy.
Freight traffic is intense: the Caribbean islands must import the majority of the products they consume.
The islands are also linked by numerous ferry lines.
And commercial shipping is not the only reason to frequent local waters. Tourism attracts many boaters. It must be said that with its countless sandy beaches, turquoise waters and paradisiacal islands, such as Barbados, Curaçao or Aruba – a selection far from being exhaustive – the Caribbean has only advantages.
By contacting CMCS, you will not only obtain competent survey, but also a real knowledge of the Caribbean, its geography, its subtleties, and its marine universe.
CMCS, as we have said, is located in Baie-Mahault, Guadeloupe, and intervenes for all your marine survey needs on the island. But our survey extends far beyond!
You can contact CMCS not only for all your needs in Guadeloupe, but also in all the French islands of the Caribbean: Saint-Martin, Martinique and Saint-Barthélemy.
