Vessel Salvage

Salvage your sunken boat or goods with our specialist equipment. We can also offer diving and slipping services as required.

Octopus Marine provides expertise in salvage of partially or completely sunken vessels or goods. Working with the dive team (we can provide divers if required), we ascertain the most appropriate method of lifting the vessel, dependent on how the vessel is orientated on the seabed and the seabed and weather conditions. The vessel is slung according to her construction and orientation, lifted to the surface then pumped out. We can inspect damage below the waterline to ascertain why the vessel has sunk and either remediate at the site, on her mooring or if necessary tow to the boatyard for slipping. We can arrange slipping services as required.
