Propeller & Bow Thruster DisentanglementGenoa

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 Genoa

Italy's largest port by cargo volume and a historic shipbuilding and repair hub, home to the classification society RINA.

A working port with this much vessel traffic and repair activity generates a steady, genuine need for in-water hull survey, class inspection support, and quay condition monitoring — not a one-off requirement.

Deliverable

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