Send your man from home. Not happy experience with German surveyors. If you must use one, avoid Gerd Karl. You can hurt him in the upper trouser area for me.

We sent our local surveyor to Italy for ours.
Just additionally paid for his flight and accommodation/meals (and several bottles of red wine, I recall )

Ian Anderson, based in Harwich, is excellent and is happy to travel.

Many thanks for your constructive replies.Will check out Rob Dros.
The final travel distance to ports in NE Netherland /German Bight provides an extra layer of difficulty so coming in from abroad would be a lengthy process and run into several days so probably extravagant for a modest vessel.
