Hull condition survey’s key points are scratch or dent caused by collision, oil coated, rust stained or rusty scale etc. If there are some above conditions, surveyor should record these position, degree , area and so on. Besides, more attention should as well as be paid to draft marks and load line marks at port/starboard bow, port/starboard midship section and port/starboard quarter.

As hull is major part of a vessel, Hull Condition Survey is rather important and significant especially in ship’s collision accident investigation or during ships deal.
