The Market Gap

Hull Maintenance Is Flawed. We Built the Fix.

The commercial diving industry has served this market for decades — but its structural limitations create compounding problems for every vessel owner in South Florida.

The Problem with Traditional Divers

Safety Risks

Heavy vessel traffic in confined fairways exposes divers to collision risk, propeller strike, and entanglement in stray lines.

Weather Dependency

Reduced visibility, strong tidal currents, and surface chop lead to cancellations and unpredictable scheduling.

Inconsistency & Zero Documentation

High turnover, unreliable scheduling, incomplete coverage, and no structured post-service reporting.

Environmental Exposure

Manual cleaning without containment systems releases biofouling material directly into marina water.

The KMS Solution

ROV Fleet Operates Remotely

90% of the hull cleaned by our underwater ROV drone — from the dock, one trained technician, zero water entry.

Works in Any Conditions

HD cameras with 400-lumen LEDs — conditions that ground divers don’t stop KMS. Guaranteed subscription cadence.

Full Branded Report Every Visit

Automated on-site texts + a full HD video report with footage, photos, zinc rating, and anomalies within 2 hours.

Best-Practice Biofouling Mitigation

Our filter bag system significantly reduces biofouling release compared to uncontained cleaning.

The Complete Platform

ROV Fleet + Skilled Divers. 100% Hull Coverage.

No other provider in South Florida combines an underwater ROV fleet with vetted dive subcontractors to deliver full hull coverage — faster, safer, and fully documented.

Primary Platform · 90%

The KMS ROV Fleet

Precision Follow-Up · 10%

The Diver

Where our ROV reaches its limits, vetted dive subcontractors complete the picture — running gear, propellers, and any areas the drone cannot access.

  • ✓ Propellers, shafts, and running gear — Cavi Blaster / NESSO
  • ✓ Rudders, trim tabs, stabilizers
  • ✓ Thrusters, intakes, exhausts
  • ✓ Transducers, lights, underwater cameras
  • ✓ Full zinc & anode condition assessment every visit

Service Comparison

Why KMS Outperforms Every Alternative

Across every metric that matters to a South Florida vessel owner.
KMS ROV + Diver Traditional Diver DIY / Haul-Out
Service Time Avg. time to complete ✓ Under half the time of a diver alone ✕ 2× longer than KMS ▲ 1–3 days out of water
Hull Coverage % of wetted surface ✓ 90–97% ROV + diver finish on running gear ▲ Varies — often incomplete ✓ Full coverage via pressure wash
Safety Risk To personnel & vessel ✓ Minimal — ROV operates remotely from dock ✕ High — traffic, entanglement, propeller risk ▲ Moderate — dry dock & haul-out hazards
Reliability & Scheduling Consistency of service ✓ Guaranteed subscription cadence ✕ Weather & diver availability dependent ▲ Scheduled but costly and disruptive
Condition Reporting Post-service documentation ✓ Full branded report: footage, photos, zinc rating ✕ Verbal debrief only — zero documentation ▲ Marina inspection report — limited detail
Post-Service Communication Client-facing updates ✓ Automated texts + 2-hr condition report ✕ None — client must follow up ▲ Basic notification from marina only
Environmental Practice Biofouling management ✓ Filter bag system — best available practice ✕ Biofouling released directly into marina water ✕ Paint scrapings & pressure-wash runoff
Zinc & Running Gear Annual maintenance ✓ Diver assesses & replaces every visit ▲ If requested — additional cost ▲ Shipyard service — separate scheduling

The KMS Advantage

More coverage. Less time. Full documentation. Best-practice environmental responsibility.

“The video report alone is worth it. I finally know exactly what’s under my boat after every service. The old dive crew would come and go and I had no idea what they’d actually done.”
