Propeller & Bow Thruster DisentanglementKotor Bay

A fouled propeller or bow thruster is usually a same-day problem, not a haul-out problem. We inspect the shaft, propeller, and thruster tunnel by camera to assess exactly what's wrapped and how tightly, then clear it using a subsea robotic claw and cutting tools sized for line, rope, and netting — without divers working blind in a confined thruster tunnel.

Why it matters in Kotor Bay

A deep natural bay on the Adriatic holding both the UNESCO-listed old town of Kotor and Tivat, where the former Arsenal naval shipyard was redeveloped into Porto Montenegro, one of the Adriatic's largest superyacht marinas.

A former naval shipyard turned large-scale superyacht marina means a genuine, standing local market for in-water hull survey, class inspection support, and routine marina seabed clearance.

Deliverable

A cleared shaft or thruster, confirmed by post-clearance inspection, with a before/after record.
