About Us
Queensland Boat Inspections is independently owned and operated by Leighton Todd. Leighton boasts an extensive history within Queensland's marine industry, commencing in 1995. His professional journey has encompassed diverse roles, including mechanical servicing and repairs, spare parts management, and over two decades of adept boat sales and brokerage expertise, also including the management of multiple boat yards and workshops across South East Queensland. His commitment to excellence is evident in his meticulous approach to each inspection, undertaken with the precision and scrutiny comparable to his personal investment in the vessel.
In 2007, Leighton embarked on a mission to enhance buyer safeguarding within the marine industry. Recognizing a prevalent gap in boat buyer protection, he initiated the provision of independent used boat inspections and valuations. This endeavor introduced a novel concept: comprehensive assessments encompassing the boat, motor, and trailer, executed by an individual boasting not only mechanical proficiency but also a background in boat building, trailer compliance, and boat sales. This innovative approach heralded a new level of assurance for boat buyers, previously underserved in this crucial aspect of their purchasing journey.
In addition to Leighton's wealth of knowledge and expertise, all inspections are enhanced by state-of-the-art diagnostic and scanning equipment, featuring Tramex moisture readers and FLIR thermal imaging cameras. Furthermore, all outboard inspections (fuel injected) encompass electronic diagnostics scans and testing, provided at no additional cost.
