Baltimore Marine Recovery's
Salvage Service

Salvage refers to any emergency boating situation which requires the rescue of a boat from peril or danger including hard groundings and sinking. Our salvagemasters use soft rigging and air liftbags to prevent any unnecessary damage to vessels. Cranes and other heavy machinery are utilized when needed along with other salvage techniques. Baltimore Marine Recovery has portable salvage and dive equipment ready 24 hours a day to assist those in need. Marine salvage services from Baltimore Marine Recovery and TowBoat U.S. are guided by a salvage contract which is seperate from the tow services provided by BoatU.S. or Baltimore Marine Recovery. Salvage is typically covered under a marine insurance "protection and indemnity" policy that specifically provides coverage for removal of wreck. For more specific information on salvage operations and rates contact BMR directly at 410.255.8700.
