Sunken Boat Recovery
Sunken and partially submerged vessels require careful planning and the right marine equipment. Triple A Boat Services provides professional recovery support for difficult submerged boat situations.
Common Situations We Handle
How the Process Works
Assessment
We evaluate the depth, hull condition, fuel situation, and recovery access before planning the operation.
Recovery Plan
Rigging points, lift equipment, and environmental precautions are planned based on the vessel.
Recovery Operation
The vessel is carefully rigged, lifted, and brought to the surface or to a staging area.
Pump, Transport, and Dispose
Once recovered, the vessel is pumped, stabilized, transported, and disposed of or handed off as needed.
