Taking the risk out of imported boats.
RCD Compliance (CE marking or RCD exemption) remains at the core of our business. As independent inspectors, acting on behalf of our UK Notified Body, we inspect your craft and make sure you’re aware what non-conformities exist and need to be addressed. We can even help with the standard non-conformities by providing the components needed and in some cases fitting them along with our custom AC conversions to allow the boats 110v systems to be operated from a 230v AC source.

For US Vendors, whether private or trade, we can help you sell more boats internationally. We provide guidance on how to successfully market to international clients as well as links to our services so that potential buyers can see you are willing to export and have a partner in place to facilitate the export process. To buyers we make it easy to import boats by providing a one stop partner to manage the boat import process.
We can't be directly involved in the purchase (due to UKSA conflict of interest requirements) but we can help you decide on the model you're looking for and suggest where to look and who you can use to ensure you can import a boat as easily as buying locally. We can also provide advice on likely CE related issues affecting import boats and check whether engine emissions are likely to be a problem. Ultimately we make boat imports as safe as possible.
With CE taken care of we can arrange the rest of the import process and provide the project management expertise to ensure from purchase to delivery you get the best deal to import a boat and minimize the risks involved as well as taking care of the paperwork once the boat arrives. Import boats can represent excellent value and with our help your objective to import a boat can be realised with minimal risk though our delivery on time, on budget and fully insured.
