We're here for all things dive related!
We scuba dive in Swansboro to
untangle an anchor line…
Things happen on the water, that no amount of experience can prevent (they just happen (our fellow water-people understand)). When things like this inevitably unfold, you fall back on that experience to get you back home safe.
Upon safe arrival back at the slip, Captains typically reach out to a local dive service to handle the disentanglement.
Follow along, as we scuba dive next to the famous Double Bridges (home of out-of-this world sunsets/sunrises) to retrieve Nancy Lee’s (“The Queen of Swansboro”) anchor line out of her port-side propeller. 🫡✅

Sneads Ferry was never destined to become a big city or industrial hub…
Instead, its roots have stayed anchored in the local waters. To truly understand Sneads Ferry, you must understand fish houses.
A fish house to a fisherman, is like a barn to a farmer. It is where catches are processed (iced, cleaned, sold, etc.), nets are mended, boats tie up, and big-fish stories are told.
Today, we are scuba diving at Mitchell Seafood to keep the underneath side of these commercial vessels in top-shape. They are part of the life-blood that brings function to this little fishing village we lovingly call home.

Did you know that
when boats run aground or hit obstructions, their propellers typically bend and don’t break?!
You can thank the alloy for taking the hit! Inboard propellers are typically made of bronze, or NiBrAl (a nickel, bronze, and aluminum alloy) which have high ductility: they can deform without cracking. The engineers WANT them to bend!
When this damage occurs, divers like us are called in to remove the damaged propellers underwater for repair and reinstall. We’ve pulled everything from 16” sailboat propellers to 44” Army Corps of Engineers giant propellers! 👀
44” propellers are quite heavy! Can anyone guess how we move these behemoths around underwater?
