The dock is your day. The booking, the paperwork, the report, the email to the client: all of it happens quietly, in the background.
Marine surveying is craft work. A surveyor’s job is to walk a dock, look closely, and document what they see. Most of the week disappears into the work around it: invoicing, scheduling, writing up the inspection, chasing signatures, getting the report out the door. All of that is taken care of. You observe and document, by hand, by voice, or by keyboard, and the rest is automatic.
Per-field photos. Findings attached to the section they belong to. Sticky section headers so you always know where you are. Built for gloves, salt spray, and a flashlight in one hand.
Write the way you already do. Handwritten notes, dictation, and typed input all land in the same survey, the same section, the same field. Use whatever your hands are doing at the time.
The work around the survey is the work most surveyors get buried in. Invoices draft themselves. The schedule fills your calendar. The report assembles from your findings. The client gets it without you composing the email.
Client inquiries become appointments. Surveys land on your calendar with the vessel, the dock, and the drive time already filled in. Confirmations and reminders go out without you opening an email.
Messages from a buyer or broker stay attached to the survey they belong to. No hunting through Gmail for the photo of the engine plate or last week's question about the rig.
Invoices draft themselves the moment a survey is booked, send when the report goes out, and post to a finance dashboard you can actually read. The bookkeeping happens; you watch it happen.
Six regions, each doing one thing well. The document is the only thing that scrolls. The nav, photos, findings, and dictation panel all follow along with whatever section you’re on.
Gelcoat is original, sound at the bow with light spider-cracking along the chine. Three small blisters noted at port quarter, below waterline. No evidence of impact damage. Boot stripe legible, antifouling renewed within 12 months.
“Ask about blistering severity, gelcoat repair specs, or anything else on this section…”
Build the checklist once for pre-purchase, insurance, damage, or condition & value, then reuse it on every hull. Sections, fields, and required findings match the way you actually work.
The whole survey in one scrollable column, system by system. No tabs, no modals, no hunting for the page you were on when the owner walked up.
Shoot from your phone, drop straight onto the finding. Every photo stays attached to the finding it documents. No folder of 400 untitled JPEGs to sort later.
A small reference card, the kind you’d clip behind the back cover of a field guide.
