Sea Conquest Marine Surveys & Consultancy

First time boat owners and not certain if we made the right decision. So we reached out to Hatem to survey the boat. The interaction from start to finish was above and beyond. Even though he found a few minor issues, he took the time to explain everything and was very will to pass on his knowledge. I would happily recommend Hatem to anyone seeking a survey.

Hatem has been exceptionally helpful throughout the entire process of purchasing a boat and the investment in him saved us thousands, if not more. His experience and expertise saved us from purchasing the wrong boat (that would have been a significant issue) and we'll be forever grateful for that. So if your looking for someone who will be a partner to protect you throughout the process - he goes above and beyond.

I attended the survey and was impressed by Hatem’s ability to communicate and recognise challenges and advantages with our future boat. His survey was thorough and serves as my off season to do list. I especially appreciated his deep knowledge of fibreglass and marine systems and our boat model in particular. I Learned a lot. He has been amazingly available post purchase with advice and input. I would definitely have him survey any future purchase. Highly recommended.

Hired Hatem to review a Regal 32 Express. He did a very thorough review of boat, both out and in the water, explaining everything he found along the way, teaching me a lot about how to maintain this boat. He provided information about the boat's market value. And since we purchased he has remained available for ongoing consulting via text or phone. Sent very thorough report. Well worth the investment. Be sure to be present when he is on your boat as you will learn a lot.

When deciding to buy a sailboat for the first time I realized there was much I did not know. The risk of making a substantial investment in a boat that looked good from far but that was in fact far from good was high. Enter Sea Conquest and Hatem Salama. With the benefit of Hatem’s extraordinary knowledge and completely independent judgement we were spared the misfortune of buying a vessel I would have deeply regretted (after learning everything about delamination that I was afraid to ask). Fortunately when Hatem was called upon to survey my next targeted vessel he approached the task with the same degree of skill and diligence. With the benefit of Hatem’s thorough survey in hand, we proceeded to close the deal. We have had no regrets and would highly recommend Sea Conquest and Hatem for any marine survey you may require.Jay

We obtained quotes from a couple of different surveyors but decided to go with Sea Conquest because of Hatem’s responsiveness to my (many!) questions. We also found his prices to be affordable. We are very pleased that we chose Sea Conquest. Hatem was prompt to respond to questions, he was friendly and he went the extra mile to provide great service. Most importantly, he is extremely knowledgeable and was able to provide us with a helpful and comprehensive survey on the boat we were purchasing. This boat was a big investment for us and having Hatem’s expert opinion helped us to feel reassured about our purchase. Thank you Hatem! I would highly recommend that anyone looking to purchase a boat have a survey completed by Hatem at Sea Conquest!

If my husband and I could give 10 stars we would. Hatem and Sea Conquest were exceptionally professional, efficient, and reliable and Hatem is just a really great person. The quality of his survey was exceptional. The thing we really appreciated was being able to go along and observe the survey being completed. We are buying our first cruiser and it was really helpful to hear all of Hatem's advise and observations. It helped us feel extra confident in the vessel we have chosen and we know what maintenance to tackle first. He's even availed himself to answering questions that we might have in the spring. Truly fantastic service!! Cheers!!

I was very impressed with the through survey that was done and how knowledgeable Hatem the surveyor was . He spent 3+ hours going threw and explain in detail the good and the bad of the boat.Highly recommend this company and surveyor.

We contacted Hatem with a bit of an emergency - we'd just made a conditional purchase of a sailboat and needed a survey to complete the deal. He juggled things and accommodated our last minute request, and did a superb job on the survey. It is clear he knows his stuff! Professional, efficient, and very helpful when I asked him to explain issues in enough detail so a novice like me could understand. I highly recommend him!

Highly recommended. We required a marine survey after switching insurance providers. Hatem was super accommodating and worked with us to get it done in great time. His report goes into great detail. Very professional and knowledgeable.
