Grading

What the grades actually mean

Grade decides price more than any other factor. We use the trade-standard definitions and we do not blur them.

New / One Trip
Manufactured recently, used for a single cargo voyage. Best cosmetic and structural grade.
Cargo Worthy (CW)
Surveyor-certified fit for international shipping. Structurally sound with normal wear.
Wind & Watertight (WWT)
Sealed against wind and water. Ideal for storage; not certified for shipping line use.
As Is
Sold in current condition with known defects disclosed. Priced accordingly.
Refurbished
Repaired, treated and repainted. Cosmetically strong, structurally sound.
