Independent, hands-on boat help — based on Orust Island, working across Sweden and Scandinavia.

Ingus Purgalis assessing a boat

Ingus Purgalis

For more than 15 years I've worked in sailing and the marine industry — buying, fixing, delivering and living with boats. I've seen what makes a good buy, and what quietly turns into a money pit.

I'm independent. I don't sell boats and I don't take broker commissions, so my only job is to give you an honest opinion — whether that's a confident GO, a smart HARD PASS, or rolling up my sleeves at your marina.

Based on Orust Island on the west coast of Sweden, I help buyers avoid expensive mistakes before they travel or pay — and help owners keep their boats ready for the water.

Why work with me

✓ Independent — I don't sell boats and take no commission
✓ 15+ years of hands-on sailing and marine experience
✓ RYA licensed and insured for boat deliveries
✓ Based on Orust, covering Sweden and Scandinavia
✓ Honest advice — a clear GO or HARD PASS, never a hard sell
✓ One transparent hourly rate — no fixed packages

See me at work

The best way to get a feel for how I work is to watch it — installations, repairs and real boat inspections on the channel.
