Service
Absentee Owner Vessel Check
A practical vessel status review for owners who are away from the port and need independent documentation of visible condition and immediate concerns.
Who it's for
Owners who live away from where their vessel is kept and want independent eyes confirming the vessel's condition without waiting for a problem to surface on its own.
What's included
- Vessel status verification
- Visible risk notes
- Photo documentation
- Follow-up recommendations
- A practical summary the owner can act on remotely
What's not included
- ARMA does not perform ongoing maintenance or repairs
- ARMA does not hold keys or take custody of the vessel unless separately agreed
- ARMA does not guarantee against future failures or theft
- ARMA does not replace marina security or insurance monitoring
- ARMA does not certify hidden conditions
When it makes sense
Use this service when an owner cannot visit the vessel personally and wants an independent, one-time or occasional check on visible condition and immediate concerns.
How ARMA works
ARMA confirms access with the marina or a designated contact, performs a visual review, documents findings with photos, and delivers a practical summary with any follow-up recommended.
This service is delivered by agreed scope and is subject to documentation, access, and — where applicable — third-party or authority requirements. ARMA provides independent advisory support; ARMA does not replace a certified surveyor, attorney, notary, insurer, financial institution, or government authority where one is legally or contractually required.
