Maritime Surveyors
Maritime Surveyors, led by Ross Hubbard, SAMS®-AMS®, is a trusted name in marine surveying throughout Southern California. Based at Channel Islands Harbor in Oxnard, the company provides comprehensive inspections for yachts, sailboats, powerboats, and small commercial vessels. With over 3,500 boats surveyed and decades of field experience, Ross brings unmatched insight and care to every project.
From the harbors of California – Ventura, Santa Barbara, and Marina del Rey to the waters surrounding the Channel Islands, Maritime Surveyors has become a go-to resource for boat owners, buyers, insurers, and lenders. The company is committed to providing surveys that are not only technically sound but also understandable and valuable to clients, whether they’re first-time buyers or seasoned mariners.
Ross approaches each survey with a meticulous eye and a methodical process. He inspects every accessible area of a vessel, from the bow to the stern, documenting the structural integrity, mechanical systems, electrical setups, and overall safety. This hands-on approach ensures that each report offers a complete and accurate snapshot of the boat’s condition at the time of inspection.
Out-of-water surveys are also available and include a thorough inspection of the hull, bottom paint, through-hull fittings, propellers, rudders, and other underwater gear. Ross uses tools such as moisture meters, thermal imaging cameras, and ultrasonic testing equipment – but most importantly, he brings a deep understanding of what to look for and how to interpret the results.
Maritime Surveyors specializes in several types of surveys. Condition and Valuation (C&V) surveys are commonly requested for pre-purchase evaluations and insurance renewals. These include an in-depth analysis of the vessel’s systems and a professional valuation. Damage assessments are also available for boats that have suffered accidents or structural failures. In addition, Ross offers appraisals for estate settlements, donations, and legal purposes, as well as corrosion testing and regulatory compliance checks aligned with ABYC®, NFPA®, and CFR guidelines.
Maritime Surveyors
What makes Maritime Surveyors stand out is the personalized service Ross offers. Clients are encouraged to attend the survey, ask questions, and observe the inspection process. Ross takes the time to explain not only what he’s finding but also why it matters. This educational approach gives clients clarity and confidence, whether they’re moving forward with a purchase or planning repairs.
The survey reports are clear, well-documented, and delivered promptly – usually within 24 to 48 hours. They include detailed findings, photographs, valuations, and prioritized recommendations. Ross’s work is recognized and accepted by all major insurance providers, banks, and marinas, thanks to his SAMS® accreditation and adherence to professional standards.
Maritime Surveyors is more than just a service- it’s a partner in helping boat owners make informed, safe, and financially sound decisions. Whether you’re preparing to buy a new yacht, need to assess damage, or want a clear evaluation for insurance, Ross Hubbard and his team are ready to deliver thorough, trusted, and transparent results.
With a home base just an hour north of Los Angeles and deep knowledge of the local boating environment, Maritime Surveyors is proud to serve Southern California’s vibrant maritime community.
