Yacht Salvage Kit

Developed in association with Captain Nick Sloane, salvage master and member of the Lloyds Panel of Special Casualty Representatives, the Yacht Salvage Kit enables fast repair of hull damages from groundings or collisions on all hull types.

Collisions, groundings, explosions and valve failures all have the potential of uncontrolled water ingress. Miko Marine has developed a kit to keep a vessel afloat and prevent it from sinking.

The right patch is selected from the kit and rapidly deployed over the damaged area. Particularly intended for use on super yachts and smaller vessels. The kit contains Miko Marine’s well proven and patented Miko Plaster® technology for keeping water on the outside and oil on the inside.

The kit contains three FlexiShape Miko Plasters® of different sizes, used for larger damages following groundings or collisions on all hull types. Also included in the kit, is the MikoFix®. This is a compact and cordless underwater fastening system which is used to fasten and secure the plasters to the hull. The Plaster is lowered into the water and positioned over the damaged area by divers. The MikoFix® is used to fix the self-tapping bolts trough the aluminium bars and secure the plaster in place.
The kit contains one Magnetic Miko Plaster® is used for leaks, cracks, sealing off pipe inlets, sea chest cover etc. With a weight in water of 6,2 kg, the Magnetic Miko Plaster® can easily be handled by one diver. The plaster is applied directly over the leak and can be re-positioned if necessary. The seal is achieved by the water pressure coupled with the magnetic adhesion between the plaster and steel surface. The MPM-002 Miko Permanent Magnets are placed on top of the plaster to further increase the seal and to prevent peeling caused by towing or current speed.
