Taylor Marine Surveying Reviews/Comments

Highly recommended. Thanks for your service

Lee Taylor was very through and professional with his inspection. Since it was just a small sail boat (22'), I did not expect such a detailed inspection. Very pleased with the results.

T. Allen

Lee Taylor provided us with a detailed complete report on two different boats. The first boat we rejected because he revealed areas of concern that made the boat out of the question. We bought the second boat and have had it two years without finding any faults that were not reported in his survey. He has further maintained contact with us regarding the boat and provided vaulable advice that he has developed over his many years in the boating industry. We strongly recommend him.

J. Ausen

Choosing this company for a survey has been a true blessing. Thanks for a jobs well done.

J. Berry

I chose Lee after 5 phone interviews with other surveyors. He was the most relaxed, friendly, and kind person. He said that he would devote the day to me and he did exactly that. He answered all my questions with patience and genuine care and gave me excellent advice.

M. Bohrer

I had a great experience buying my first big boat and the survey was complete and well done. The service was great before, during, and even after the survey. Job well done and very enjoyable experience.

LJ Cannon

Thank you, Lee. We will not hesitate to recommend your services and expertise to anyone we know who is purchasing a boat.

I couldn?t be happier with your service. I will definitely use your services again if I am in the area and would not hesitate to recommend you to others.

J. Cory

A professional providing outstanding service. More than happy to deal with any international client and set to do so. Many others could learn from his great attitude and willingness to help.

I'd happily recommend Mr. Taylor any time.

R. Deshazo

I appreciate your willingness to expedite the survey results which will help me close the purchase . After your thorough survey I feel comfortable that the vessel is worthy of the asking price. But more importantly, there are no issues that my novice eye may have missed. I enjoyed our time together and will use your recommendations to make my families boating experience a safe adventure. I will certainly not hesitate to recommend your services to others in the St. Pete area. Thanks again for your thorough survey and enjoyable company.

T. Hauck

Lee was extremely knowledgeable and very helpful in suggesting methods to correct the minor problems that he detected. Made me much more comfortable accepting delivery of our boat.

J. Horton

Lee saved me around $4500.00 on the purchase of my boat. The leverage he provided me in negotiating was the key. The previous owner had most of the deficiencies repaired before I took over ownership. Resulting in a boat that was truly turn key for me.

D. Leverenz

Lee Taylor is a delight to work with - he fully understood my specific needs for my sailing yacht selection and not only provided a comprehensive survey but made recommendations on post-purchase improvements and considerations that I found to be essential advice.

C. Murdoch

Lee Taylor was both courteous and professional when surveying a 1996 Catalina 42 sailboat I was in contract to purchase. It was clear that he was focused on the client's needs and not the boat broker's needs. His report was extensive and very detailed. Overall, Lee was a pleasure to deal with and I would have no hesitation in recommending him as an excellent surveyor.

N. Patterson

Great Job at a fair price, all I ask for!

C. Popp

I will never employee another surveyor. Lee is thorough and meticulous. He is the consummate professional and it was a stress-free pleasure to do business with him. Highly recommend! Thanks Lee!

I was impressed with the thoroughness of the survey and the comprehensiveness of the report. Lee Taylor was obviously committed to serving my needs as a pre-purchase customer. I highly recommend Taylor Marine Surveyors.

R. Shafer

Lee Taylor is a very competent and professional marine surveyor. This was my first boat purchase and I was apprehensive about the whole thing especially since I traveled 1,500 miles. Lee was great at putting me at ease as he explained all his finding. Everyone on board that day, the seller, the broker and myself were very impressed with his thoroughness and professionalism. I highly recommend Lee Taylor for your marine survey needs.

K. Shallcross

I would recommend Taylor Marine Surveying to everyone. Lee has the expertise to perform both the visual AND mechanical aspects of the boat. Even the broker asked where I found Lee at as he said in all the years he's been selling boats this was one of the most thorough survey's he'd ever seen! The money I paid for this survey by far the best money I could've spent as it saved me from making a HUGE mistake! Thanks again to Lee for doing a terrific job!

R. Stiegler

Lee Taylor was very professional, thorough, and always available for questions and advice. Recommended highly.

E. Shull

The whole experience was exceptional, this was my first purchase and was out of state, so I needed someone who I could trust to do the right thing. Mr. Taylor was upfront with me on my expectations and I felt he did a thorough assessment, along with an incredibly detailed report of the vessel. He saved me from making a $20K+ mistake. I had never met Mr. Taylor face to face, but from our discussions I could tell he was passionate about his craft, and I was at ease with the process because he made me feel comfortable hiring him for the job. I would use his service again, and I would suggest that my family and/ or friends do the same!

V. Tucci

Lee Taylor is extremely professional and has steered my wife and I into making a well informed purchase. I would highly recommend Lee to any private buyer.

B. Uppercue

Taylor Marine Surveying did a fantastic job of meeting my demanding timeline without sacrificing any quality of work or thoroughness. That level of customer service is very hard to find and I can't recommend them enough. I know I will use them again.

D. Wagner

A cut above previous surveyors used.

S. Walters

The survey was well done, and Lee (the surveyor) was clear in his explanation of the things that do not meet the standards of the ABYC (American Boat & Yacht Council).

W. Walters

Lee provided a very detailed survey for my 36 foot Sea Ray. I purchased the boat 3 weeks ago and am more than pleased with his excellent service. He was also always available and his communication skills were outstanding.

G. Webb

Lee is not only knowledgeable, but comfortable with his knowledge as well as sharing it. I would HIGHLY recommend Lee for anyone considering a boat purchase- he will let you know what you are truly buying (i.e., what the boat is needing down to the littlest detail) .
