MARINE SURVEYORS & yacht DESIGNERS

The Yacht Designers and Surveyors Association (YDSA) represents yacht surveyors and yacht designers - an established professional association for independent marine surveyors and designers. Members work with small craft including yachts - sail and power - and RIBs, as well as larger boats such as tugs, ferries and other workboats, plus large yachts (over 24m). YDSA does not include large ships and cargo. Our broad membership combines a wealth of experience with up-to-the-minute knowledge of the latest advances in marine technology. Contact our professional members using the 'Find a Surveyor/Designer' links above for help with:

• Buying a boat
• Measuring a boat for British registration (tonnage)
• Having a boat built, repaired or a re-fit
• Coding - certification under the MCA Small Commercial Vessel Codes of Practice and the Canal & River Trust FFP scheme

and a wide variety of other services for boat owners, whether commercial or recreational, UK or worldwide.
