“We commissioned Ian Weaver to do a full pre purchase / insurance survey for us and from the moment we contacted him it has been an extremely positive experience. Ian was exceptionally thorough and we were impressed with his knowledge. Thank you Ian and Denise. Hank”
Thank you Hank. Glad we could help.
“My wife and I were delighted with the thoroughness of Ian's assessment of what has turned out to be a complex case with our boat. Without your good work we would never have got as far as we have in determining the causes of the problem and the course of action to remedy them. Thank you Denise and Ian!”
Thanks Alan. Glad we could help bring clarity to the situation you were dealing with.
“Ian and Denice at Weaver Marine have been absolutely fantastic at guiding me through a recent boat purchase. They have provided excellent service and knowledge throughout. Would recommend to anyone looking to purchase a boat in the Perth region. Ian your advice on the day of inspection and detailed report gave me the confidence I was looking for. Thank you.”
Thankyou Matthew. Glad we could give you all the information you needed.
“Ian carried out a very thorough pre-purchase survey and the report was comprehensive. Most importantly Ian called me from the boat to discuss his findings which gave me a very clear understanding of the good and bad points of the vessel. Weaver Marine’s survey was invaluable to me and worth every penny!”
Thanks Mal. I hope all is going well for you guys. Happy to help.
“From the start Denice and Ian were a pleasure to deal with. Ian did a pre purchase inspection of a 34ft mono powerboat and because we are on the east coast we needed someone who was thorough. Ian did a fantastic job spending time not only through phone calls but a detailed report that included hundreds of photos aswell. Denice and Ian are honest and genuine people that care for there clients. There service is first class!”
Thank you Andrew. We trust that you find the perfect vessel for your needs soon. Happy to help anytime.

Expect very different seasonal systems across Western Australia: the south‑west (Perth to Albany) has a strong summer afternoon sea breeze (the “Fremantle Doctor”) and winter westerly fronts, while northern WA follows a wet/dry monsoonal cycle with strong seasonal onshore winds, thunderstorms and cyclone risk in the wet season. Local headlands, estuaries and tidal flows often change what you actually feel on the water, so learn the local timing and sheltered venues first.
