He did a servey for me on 1/12/18 and it was a very poor survey. I did a brief investigation and found out that he is not certified as a surveyor and also lied about his other certificcation. He stamped his report with a seal from the Natonal Association of Marine Surveyors (NAMS) that he is a marine surveyor. I called NAMS and they told me to send them the survey because he has not been a member of NAMS since April 2017, and therefore NAMS was going to send him a cease a desist letter.

I also found that he ks a csreer crimminal. If you search his name at the Broward County, Florida clerk of courts website, you will see his list of crimes.

Bogus lies about my company

 This individual is not my client and was not aboard during the survey of his fathers boat. He didn’t like the defective comments I made about some of the equipment about. He expected me to fill the boat with water while on an elevator lift to test the bulge pumps and possibly overload the cables. I would not attempt that without him present, thus wrote it accordingly.

It was simple insurance report for his company with very few things wrong, but he demanded I change my findings and commit fraud to Gus company. I WILL NEVER DO THAT FIR ANY AMOUNT IF MONEY IR PERSUASION This otter statements he has posted are Lies and s bogus attempt to get me to change my report. Not happening.

When I offered to show him my findings he became irate , cysing and I hung up I have surveyed for 8,600+ clients for 38+ years and do not write what owners demand just to fool an insurance co nor can I be bought Thus happens with owners when they don’t want to fix problems thus should have their insurance cancelled until safety issues are fixed.
