Who this is for
Propeller support when you need it.
Whether you never pull propellers or just need a hand with one job, this program is built for your dive company.
The job needs different tools.
You already pull propellers, but a specific job calls for equipment you don't have—such as Zeus pods, propellers requiring a Propsmith puller, or large propellers. Bring us in for that job.
Your schedule or service area doesn't fit.
For companies that don't have time for a particular job or have a customer outside their service area: refer the propeller work so your customer has a next step without adding to your workload.
About one week, from pulling to reinstallation.
Our estimated turnaround for propeller pulling, repair, and reinstallation is about one week. Timing can vary with repair scope, shop scheduling, weather, and access; we'll confirm the expected schedule for each job.
Customer protection guarantee
Your customers stay
your customers.
We sign before you refer. Your written consent controls any work beyond propellers.
Request your partner agreement ↗No competing service offers
Bottom Time cannot solicit or perform hull cleaning or any non-propeller service for your referred customers without your company's prior written consent. A customer's direct request does not bypass this protection.
Propeller-only communication
Our employees, divers, and subcontractors must limit customer-facing communication and reports strictly to propellers, shafts, and cutlass bearings. This reporting scope does not authorize additional non-propeller work.
They must not discuss, assess, report, photograph for reporting, or recommend work concerning hull or bottom condition, bottom paint, marine growth, anodes, rudders, trim tabs, through-hulls, or other underwater systems. Other inquiries go back to your dive company.
Only disclosures required by law or narrowly necessary for an immediate safety hazard are excepted. Notice goes to the referring company beforehand where reasonably possible, or promptly afterward. This exception never authorizes unrelated sales or routine maintenance.
