Following the sale of Marine MGA Evan completed a graduate business degree and worked for companies such as Liberty Mutual, Blue Cross Blue Shield, and American Family Insurance

During this period, he came to realize life was better around boats and formed East Coast Marine Surveyors in 2014 to offer condition and valuation (C&V) reports for the local community. Shortly after the company's founding, however, Evan was offered a Senior Marine Underwriter position with Chubb Insurance company. He accepted this opportunity and now approves vessel surveys and manages a large portfolio of boat and yacht business. To that end, East Coast Marine Surveyor's operations are currently inactive to avoid any conflict of interest.
