I can’t recommend this business highly enough and thank Dean for his attention to detail and professionalism shown throughout.

​Dean completed the survey with the utmost professionalism. He was on time and worked with an air of accuracy and competence. The written report was thorough and contained everything as expected. I'm sure time won't prove me wrong with this assessment of Dean’s capabilities and I would definitely use him again.

Recently I contacted Dean Kennedy of Marine Survey New Zealand, to carry out a survey on a pre purchase of an Oliver 370 Royale. The communication by Dean was professional and friendly from the beginning. Upon meeting Dean he began the survey by taking his time to inform me about the process and how it would be undertaken.

Throughout he explained why he was doing something and the results he was getting. It was a thorough and detailed approach to the survey on an older boat which has given me every confidence to move forward in purchasing the boat. Any problems he found had manageable/knowledgeable  solutions which were helpful to me.

I can’t recommend this business highly enough and thank Dean for his attention to detail and professionalism shown throughout.

This is to advise that I contracted Dean Kennedy from Marine survey NZ to survey a 52 foot vessel I was looking to buy October 2015, I am pleased to say I found Dean to be professional, accommodating and very informative. The quality of the report was specific and easy to understand with adequate images for reference.  
 
The report was turned round within 2 days and followed up with passion and enthusiasm and reassurance in terms of the content of the report.
​  
I would happily recommend Dean and use him on any future purchase should I buy another boat. ​

I confirm that Marine Survey New Zealand has been engaged by me to undertake a pre-purchase survey of my launch, a Fairline Squadron 65.
 
Throughout the process I found Dean to be generous with his time, explaining fully the process, outcomes and consequences of his survey. The survey was thorough in all aspects, covering the internal and external of the hull, as well as the fixtures, fittings and systems on the boat.
​
I found the post-survey discussions with Dean to be of particular value, as he explained fully the significance of his findings to me, and offered recommendations on responses to those findings.  

Dean was also very helpful in assisting in discussions with the vendor of the boat, ensuring that both parties understood the significance of defects and issues, and were able to move forward to a successful outcome.
​
I can confidently recommend Marine Survey New Zealand as a highly competent, reliable and helpful company, and would not hesitate to use them again.
