Expert & Expert Opinion
For wooden motorboats, nothing replaces experience, craftsmanship, and an independent view. As an independent expert for wooden motorboats, I offer well-founded, objective assessments based on real-world experience—not theory, but over two decades of daily work in wooden boat building.
Professional Foundation
My professional foundation is my training as a carpenter with a master craftsman’s certificate. I have been working in boat building for more than 20 years and have been involved in the construction of numerous new wooden motorboats as well as their professional restoration. As managing director of Graf Bootsbau GmbH & Co. KG, I work daily with the construction details, materials, and typical weak points of classic and modern wooden motorboats. This knowledge flows directly into my work as an expert.
Clarity
My expert reports provide clarity. They show the actual condition, evaluate the substance and damage in a comprehensible manner, and provide a reliable basis for decision-making – whether for purchase, sale, insurance, or technical assessment. I attach great importance to comprehensibility, neutrality, and a realistic assessment without embellishment.
Non-binding initial consultation
If you are looking for an expert who not only assesses wooden boats but also knows them inside out, you have come to the right place. I advise you personally, independently, and with the aim of providing you with security and transparency.
