Boat Propeller Removal & Prop Repair Coordination in Sunny Isles Beach, FL

A diver from our crew removes your boat's prop underwater in Sunny Isles Beach, right where the boat sits at its dock or slip. If it touched bottom near Bakers Haulover Inlet, tell us where.

Sunny Isles Beach, FL

Prop off, repaired and back on after a run through Haulover

A haul-out is not the only way to get a prop to the shop. Our divers pull it underwater at your dock in Sunny Isles Beach. It goes to F&J. When the repair is done, we put it back on.

NOAA describes two unmarked channels on the Intracoastal side of Bakers Haulover Inlet and has recorded currents in the inlet itself. If your prop touched bottom on that run, tell us where it happened. We can pull the prop and look at it.

Our crew is licensed and insured and works out of Fort Lauderdale.

Local notes for Sunny Isles Beach

The current on record in Bakers Haulover Inlet

NOAA's Coast Pilot says currents of about 2.9 knots on the flood and 2.5 knots on the ebb have been recorded in the inlet. Those are recorded speeds, and NOAA sends boaters to its tidal current predictions for times. A prop that took a hit there gets pulled at your dock in Sunny Isles Beach, not in the inlet.

Two unmarked channels just north of the inlet

At Intracoastal Mile 1079.5, NOAA says, an unmarked channel leads south to Bakers Haulover Inlet. A second unmarked channel leads east from Mile 1079.8, and a slow-no-wake zone covers the stretch where the two converge. The depths NOAA lists for both were reported in 1983. If your prop touched bottom there, tell us which channel you were in.

Propeller Removal questions in Sunny Isles Beach

My prop touched bottom near Haulover Inlet. What should I tell you?

Tell us where the prop touched and where the boat is kept in Sunny Isles Beach. NOAA describes two unmarked channels north of the inlet: one leading south from Intracoastal Mile 1079.5, one leading east from Mile 1079.8. Tell us which you were in, if you know. We pull the prop at your dock and look at it there.

How strong is the current in Bakers Haulover Inlet?

The figures on record for Bakers Haulover Inlet are about 2.9 knots on the flood and 2.5 knots on the ebb. They come from NOAA's Coast Pilot, which also points boaters to NOAA's tidal current predictions for times. Prop work is done at the dock or slip where your boat is kept, not at the inlet.

Do you have to haul my boat out to get the prop off?

No. Our divers pull the prop in the water, so the boat stays in its slip in Sunny Isles Beach. That is true whether the trouble started in Haulover Inlet or at the dock. Tell us how to reach the boat from the street and how many props it has.

Where does the prop go after you take it off?

The prop goes to F&J for repair, and then it goes back on your boat. Our divers do the pull and the refit at your dock in Sunny Isles Beach, on the Intracoastal side of the island. If the prop took its hit on a run through Haulover, tell us that when you call.
