THE PROCESS OF FLOATING A BOAT

Floating a sunken boat is a complex process that requires careful planning, specialized equipment, and expertise. The first step is assessing the situation, including the boat's size, location, depth, and condition. Divers often inspect the wreckage to determine the extent of the damage and identify potential hazards, such as sharp objects or hazardous materials.


Once the assessment is complete, the boat needs to be stabilized. This can involve sealing holes or breaches in the hull to prevent water from entering. If the boat is heavily damaged, temporary repairs may be necessary to strengthen its structure. 


The next step involves using flotation devices, such as inflatable bags or pontoons, which are attached to the boat and gradually inflated. As these devices expand, they provide the buoyancy needed to lift the vessel off the seabed. This process must be done slowly and carefully to avoid sudden movements that could further damage the boat or cause it to capsize.


In some cases, powerful pumps are used to remove water from the boat's interior as it rises, reducing the weight and helping the boat to float. Once the boat is sufficiently buoyant, it can be towed to a nearby harbor or dry dock for further repairs.


The entire operation requires coordination between divers, salvage teams, and sometimes additional vessels to ensure the recovery is safe and effective. The process can be time-consuming and costly, especially for larger or heavily damaged boats, but it is essential for recovering valuable assets and preventing environmental damage from sunken vessels.

TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE WHEN RECOVERING A BOAT CALL US NOW 407-861-0950

Delays can lead to increased damage to the vessel, greater environmental risks, and higher recovery costs. The longer a boat remains submerged, the more likely it is to suffer structural deterioration, such as corrosion or weakening of the hull, which can complicate the recovery process and potentially render the boat unsalvageable. Additionally, a sunken boat poses environmental threats, including the potential release of fuel, oil, or other hazardous materials into the water, which can harm marine life and pollute surrounding areas. Prompt recovery minimizes these risks and helps prevent the situation from worsening, making it crucial to act quickly and efficiently in boat salvage operations.

The Society of Maritime Arbitrators, Inc. U.S. OPEN FORM SAL

The U.S. Open Form Salvage Agreement, often referred to as the "Lloyd's Open Form" or "LOF," is a widely recognized and respected salvage contract that ensures swift and effective response in maritime emergencies. Developed by the Lloyd’s of London, the LOF allows salvors to act immediately to save vessels and cargo in distress without the need for lengthy negotiations. It operates on a "no cure, no pay" principle, meaning salvors are only compensated if the salvage operation is successful. This agreement promotes quick, decisive action in maritime emergencies, prioritizing the safety of lives, vessels, and the marine environment, while ensuring fair compensation for salvors.
