Boat Salvage and Vessel Recovery in New York, NY

Boat salvage on New York waters

We know New York waters don't forgive mistakes. Between the crowded marina slips, the heavy commercial traffic through the Hudson and East River, and weather that can turn a calm day into a crisis fast, having a professional marine salvage service on call matters. Our team handles emergency response for all types of salvage situations we handle across New York, NY and surrounding areas, including Nassau County. From a vessel in peril off the coast to a grounded recreational boat in the harbor, our salvage process is built to safely and efficiently recover vessels of any size, for both residential and commercial clients.

We're a local company rooted in New York, NY, committed to protecting the water during every vessel recovery operation. Grounded, wrecked, or stuck at a dock, we're ready.

Our salvage process, start to finish

We offer a full range of recovery services designed for the unique challenges of the Hudson River and the New York waterways.

• Damaged vessel recovery — We deploy lift bags, pumps, and rigging fast to stabilize a compromised boat before conditions get worse. Our salvage process is built around speed, because we move fast to prevent a bad situation from becoming a total loss. Every minute counts out there.
• Grounded vessel assistance — A grounded vessel needs a careful eye before anything else moves. We run a full assessment to avoid hull damage, then work methodically to refloat the wrecked vessel and get it safely transported. No shortcuts, no guessing.
• Underwater operations — Our certified divers handle the work nobody else can see, from hull inspections and patching to complex rigging setups in low-visibility New York harbor conditions. These are the kinds of jobs that determine whether a boat comes up clean or comes up worse.
• Environmental containment and mitigation — The moment we're on scene, we deploy containment booms and take control of any hazardous materials on board. Protecting the Hudson and surrounding waterways isn't an afterthought. It's built into how we work every single time.

These are the core types of salvage situations we handle, though every job has its own wrinkles. If you're working through insurance coverage for salvage costs, we're familiar with that process and can document the scene thoroughly to support your claim.
