Find a YDSA surveyor member by name, material or location. Results are sorted by membership grade and then by last name. Full member is the most senior grade, followed by Accredited and then Affiliate membership as the entry grade.
Select a location by UK, Europe or Rest of World and then select your required region/country. Surveyors travel widely and the address listed is their main office(s). Look at their Area of Operation to see where they travel.
Specialisations indicate any specialist areas the surveyor may have, but does not exclude other types of work they may do. Materials represent their assessment by the YDSA for membership.
Coding Surveyors are divided into two levels, according to their qualifications and experience:
- Level 1: Coding vessels in all categories; carrying 16 or more persons; lifting/towing; carrying more than 1 tonne of cargo; and Pilot Boats.
- Level 2: Coding vessels up to Category 2 not requiring a Stability Information Booklet.
