Vessel pre purchase inspections
Everyone who has purchased a pre-owned shipping asset is aware that there can be hidden defects or problems in the vessel. Therefore, they opt for pre-purchase inspections of their acquisitions before investing in the asset.
A pre-purchase inspection is carried out by ship inspectors on behalf of potential buyers, banks, insurance companies and investors as a part of their due diligence requirements.
Buying a recreational boat or a commercial vessel is a huge and hefty investment. It can be overwhelming for any first-time buyer. There are various things to consider, questions to ask, elements and equipment to review, especially when a second-hand vessel is being purchased.
Therefore if you are a first-time buyer looking forward to purchasing a ship, don’t worry! We at GMS Marine can help take some of this stress off your shoulders. Here’s a walkthrough of all the details you need to know before making an informed decision

Flag Change Studies
Every ship has a designated flag (Indian ship will have Indian flag, Panamian ship will have panamian flag etc..) therefore, a seafarer boarding a ship of a typical flag would require it’s documents to be approved hence, we are also associated with the service of “Flag Documentation”. If you need any document to be issued under a specific flag with the authorized authority we can be contacted.
We can help you to get the documentation done. Documents/License & Endorsement can be obtained for all the officers and ratings. Duplicate of license and courses can also be provided via approved authorities.

This unique construction or arrangement allows the water to be filled up in an area, also known as a lock so that vessels can be manoeuvred in and out of the area.
Superintending Assistance
A ship superintendent is a person who is in charge of ensuring whether the necessary repair works on a ship are being executed properly, especially during the dry dock of the ship.
