All UK commercial vessels up to 24m LOA must comply with the MCA Small Craft Codes for safety and seaworthiness.

Our expert assessments cover UK, BVI, Cayman Islands, Gibraltar, Guernsey, Isle of Man, and Jersey registrations, delivering accurate certification for a smooth and compliant registration process.
