Aslin Boat Surveys provide marine surveys according to the following terms and conditions. Aslin Boat Surveys will be inspecting & evaluating the condition of your boat against the accepted industry and government standards. Although a boat may appear safe to launch, please keep in mind that a Marine Surveyor is skilled at looking beyond cosmetic presentation. Structural problems or hazards identified with the boats fuel , propane or electrical systems can result in the Marine Surveyor finding the boat unsafe to launch or insure. A MARINE SURVEY IS NOT A GUARANTEE OF INSURABILITY. Deficiencies identified in the Marine Survey Report are based on the knowledge & experience of the Marine Surveyor, along with accessibility at the time of the physical inspection. Aslin Boat Surveys shall not, under any circumstances, be held liable for deficiencies not identified due to blocked or limited access, as a result of either vessel design or equipment installed on or in the vessel after manufacture. Clients are encouraged to remove all belongings and non-fixed chattels in preparation for the marine survey, in order to allow full access for the Marine Surveyor. Additional time required to disassemble or to move boat contents during the physical inspection shall be billed according to the rate of $150 per hour. Marine Survey Reports or follow-up consultation reports shall not be released until all additional charges are paid in full (cheques must be cleared at the bank). Should repairs be required to correct deficiencies prior to launch, such repairs are the responsibility of the vessel owner. An additional marine survey or follow-up consultation may be required to render the boat seaworthy. The cost of an additional survey or follow-up consult shall be borne by the client. All services provided by Aslin Boat Surveys shall be billed according to the current Pricing Sheet found at aslinboatsurveys.ca at the time the Marine Surveyor physically attends a location to inspect (or re- inspect) a vessel. Partial payment for services is due before the time the Marine Surveyor physically attends a location to inspect (or re-inspect) a vessel. Balance is due before the report is emailed as a pdf. Preferred method of payment is Interac e-transfer. Credit Card payments are subject to an additional 3.5% convenience charge. The Marine Survey Report may take up to 5 business days to be completed. The report will be attached to electronic mail and presented in PDF format. Requests for alternate formats (including printed copies) will be subject to a document fee of $30. Bookings made with Aslin Boat Surveys are binding upon the client, based upon acceptance of the terms outlined in this document. Cancellation of a booking must be made 24 hours prior to the date and time of the booking. Should a cancellation be necessary within 24 hours of the scheduled booking, a cancellation fee of 20% of the quoted fees shall apply. Cancellation fees must be paid in full prior to re-booking the Marine Surveyor. Aslin Boat Surveys reserves the right, at the discretion of Chris Aslin, to postpone or cancel a booking based on weather conditions, scheduling conflicts, or other unforeseen circumstances. Aslin Boat Surveys acknowledges, however, that services will not be unreasonably withheld. Confirmation of the booking e-mail constitutes acceptance of the terms & conditions contained herein, and therefore will be considered by Aslin Boat Surveys as acknowledgement by the client of the existence of a contract between the client and Aslin Boat Surveys, according to the limitations of federal & provincial law. Aslin Boat Surveys will not, under any circumstances, divulge information to a third party without the written consent of the client. Further, Aslin Boat Surveys offers no guarantees or warranties to any third party to this agreement.
