Osmosis Inspections & Repair 

• 
• 
•  

Osmosis can affect the value of your vessel. Small blisters are difficult to see and can be mistaken for paint blisters, which are of no structural concern.

We can provide a detailed assessment of the osmosis to a vessel and also provide professional superintendency for osmosis repairing.

During inspection, the hauling up of the boat is necessary, where it should stay 2-3 days minimum on land before launching due to moisture readings which have been taken with dry hull and normal weather conditions.

We use a Caisson V1-D1 moisture meter to provide the technical measurements.

To give you some rough guide lines - an osmosis repair in Greece is likely to take about 3 to 4 months drying period when the bottom has been cleaned from blisters level.
