Pre-AMSA Inspections are conducted to ensure vessels meet all Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) requirements before formal inspection or port state control boarding. At Good Wood Marine Services, we help shipowners and managers avoid detentions, delays, and penalties by identifying non-compliance issues in advance.
Our detailed inspections focus on structural integrity, safety equipment, crew certification, and documentation. We simulate AMSA checks to ensure your vessel is fully prepared for regulatory scrutiny. With our proactive service, you can improve operational readiness, safeguard reputation, and pass AMSA inspections confidently—especially critical for foreign-flagged vessels entering local waters.
Our Pre-AMSA Inspection service includes:
Visual inspection of hull, deck, machinery, and accommodation areas
Safety equipment checks, including lifeboats, firefighting gear, and life rafts
Navigation and communication system functionality checks
Verification of statutory certificates and crew documentation
ISM Code compliance review (including SMS manual audit)
Condition of pollution prevention equipment (MARPOL-related)
Bridge and engine room readiness checks
Identification of past non-conformities or potential PSC deficiencies
Photographic evidence of any deficiencies found
Summary report with recommended corrective actions and priority ratings
