Pre-Purchase & Insurance Hull SurveysMarseille

A pre-purchase survey or a post-incident insurance claim both turn on the same question — what does the underwater hull actually look like right now, verifiably. We produce a rapid 3D digital baseline: a buyer gets an independent structural record before signing, a charter fleet gets a condition benchmark between seasons, and an adjuster gets a measurable, timestamped record of grounding or impact damage rather than a diver's written description.

Why it matters in Marseille

France's largest port, and home to DRASSM — France's national department for underwater archaeological research — reflecting the Mediterranean coast's density of documented ancient wreck sites nearby.

A major commercial port sitting alongside France's own underwater archaeology authority makes Marseille a genuine fit for both vessel/infrastructure survey work and non-invasive heritage-site documentation.

Deliverable

A dated, measurable 3D structural baseline — the record a purchase decision or insurance claim can be built on.
