What we do

ROV-powered boat care across Scotland—gentle on paint, tough on fouling.

ROV hull cleaning

Running gear focus

Targeted passes for areas like shafts, struts and intakes, as appropriate for your vessel and paint system.

Inspections & video

Real-time monitoring and an HD video report after every service so you can review hull condition from anywhere.

How it works

1

Launch & attach

The ROV is lowered beside your boat. Its controlled suction attaches firmly without harming the hull.

2

Guided cleaning

Rotating soft brushes sweep the hull while our pilot guides the drone along all submerged areas.

3

Stops fouling early

Regular passes keep biofouling from taking hold, improving hydrodynamics and cutting fuel burn.

4

Live video

See what we see in real time or review a saved video afterward to track hull condition.

5

Final quality check & footage

We complete a final pass and provide HD footage for your records.

Frequently asked questions

What is the cleaning drone?

It’s a purpose-built underwater robot that adheres to your hull and removes slime and algae using soft brushes while respecting antifouling.

Why choose ROV cleaning?

ROV cleaning delivers uniform coverage quickly, records HD video for transparency, and is gentle on coatings.

Is it safe for fresh antifouling?

Yes—our brush system is designed to protect both hard and silicone paints while removing light growth.

How long does a hull clean take?

Most mono-hulls are completed within a few hours depending on size and fouling. We’ll confirm on booking.

Do I need to be present?

No. We can coordinate marina access and send your video report when finished.

Where do you operate?

We service marinas throughout Scotland and nearby waters—ask for availability in your port.
