Sea Surveyor has surveyed over 50 lakes and reservoirs in 5 Western States since 1985, ranging in elevation from sea level to over 7,000’. Our tow vehicles have trailered our survey boats over 9,000’ mountain passes, and launched the boats in lakes without boat ramps. Our vessel’s have enclosed, heated cabins that allow surveys to continue in winter during rain/snow conditions.
Our 26’ survey vessel has a radiator-cooled engine, which guarantees no release of oil or gasoline into the lake. We also use electric-powered motors to propel our smaller survey boats in pristine, drinking-water reservoirs.
Our hydrographic surveys are typically used to compute new lake capacity tables. We also conduct Subbottom Profiling surveys to measure the thickness of soft sediment layers.
