Technical Office
Technical Report Specialists for Recreational Vessels
Our team of dedicated engineers specializes in the creation of comprehensive technical reports for recreational boats. We are committed to providing detailed and precise evaluations that ensure the safety and optimal performance of your vessels.
Pre-Purchase Inspections
Our team of experts conducts thorough inspections of recreational boats before purchase. These inspections provide our clients with detailed information about the vessel's condition and status, enabling them to make informed decisions and avoid potential surprises after the purchase.
Technical Reports
At Beyond Boating, we use a variety of specialized techniques and procedures to gather precise data and generate detailed analyses that enable our clients to make informed and effective decisions. Some of the procedures we employ include:
Visual Inspection
Visual inspection is the first step in evaluating any vessel. Our experts conduct a thorough inspection to identify possible defects, damage, corrosion, or other visible issues that may affect the integrity and performance of the vessel.
Non-Destructive Testing (NDT)
We utilize a variety of Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) techniques to assess structural integrity and detect potential hidden defects without damaging the vessel. This includes using various methods to detect cracks, corrosion, osmosis, and other internal irregularities.
Thermography:
Thermography is a technique we employ to detect and evaluate temperature variations on the surface of various vessel systems during operation. This allows us, through proper interpretation, to identify faults or even predict them in advance.

Electrical Installation Sizing and Modifications Analysis
Evaluation of Systems and Equipment:
We carefully examine all systems and equipment installed on the vessel, including propulsion systems, electrical systems, navigation systems, safety equipment, among others. We perform functional and performance tests to ensure that all systems and equipment operate correctly and comply with applicable design requirements and regulations.
Conclusions and Recommendations:
Based on the data collected and analysis conducted, we prepare detailed technical reports that include our conclusions and recommendations. These recommendations may include preventive maintenance actions, necessary repairs, design improvements, or any other measures necessary to ensure the safety, performance, and reliability of the vessel.
