Important Update: Discontinuation of BSS Examinations

Dear valued customers and partners,

We wish to inform you that, effective immediately (27/08/2025), we will no longer be carrying out Boat Safety Scheme (BSS) examinations. This decision comes after careful consideration of the various challenges and concerns that have arisen regarding the overall work environment and the procedures outlined by the BSS.

Primarily, we found that the environment created by the BSS process had become increasingly hostile. It is essential for us to provide a positive and supportive atmosphere for our clients. Unfortunately, the dynamics introduced by the BSS have made it difficult to maintain this safe and conducive work environment.

Additionally, we have serious concerns about the instructions provided to GasSafe-registered examiners by the BSS. Upon reviewing these guidelines, it appears that some of the practices will lead our operations into a position where we are in breach of the GasSafe Register’s Rules of Registration and contravene legal regulations. Our commitment to maintaining the highest standards of safety and compliance is paramount, and we cannot risk jeopardising our integrity or that of our clients.

We understand that this change may cause inconvenience, and we sincerely apologise for any disruption it may cause to your plans.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support.
