Yacht refit service

Yacht Propeller & Running Gear Services in Spain

Inspection-led coordination for propellers and accessible underwater propulsion components, from haul-out and removal to specialist repair, finishing and refitting.

Evidence first, then the right workshop scope

Propeller damage, vibration, impact or poor finish can have several causes. We coordinate the practical chain: haul-out and access, visible condition recording, removal where agreed, specialist measurement or repair, surface finishing and refitting. Shaft alignment, bearings, saildrives or internal machinery require their own competent specialist and are not diagnosed from a propeller photograph.

  • Fixed and folding propeller condition review
  • Blade repair, fairing and workshop finishing
  • Removal, transport and refitting coordination
  • Related running-gear specialist input where required

Service scope

What can be included

The service is defined around the actual propulsion arrangement, symptom and access. It does not promise a particular performance gain or repairability before specialist assessment.

Haul-out and condition record

Coordinate access and document visible blade, hub, anode and accessible running-gear condition.

  • Impact and edge damage
  • Surface and visible corrosion
  • Installation context

Removal and specialist assessment

Arrange removal and suitable workshop review, including measurement or material-specific advice where required.

  • Part identification
  • Transport and handling
  • Repair-versus-replacement decision

Repair and finishing

Coordinate agreed blade repair, fairing, local material work and final finishing by the selected workshop.

  • Defined repair scope
  • Intermediate approval if needed
  • Final workshop condition

Refitting and follow-up

Coordinate return, installation and agreed checks, with separate technical input for alignment or drivetrain concerns.

  • Installation parts and torque requirements
  • Related anodes or consumables
  • Sea-trial coordination if agreed

Working process

From symptom to refitting

A visible defect is recorded without assuming it is the sole cause of a propulsion complaint.

  1. Collect yacht, propulsion and incident or symptom information.
  2. Confirm haul-out, safe access and the initial inspection scope.
  3. Agree removal, workshop assessment and quotation authority.
  4. Coordinate approved repair or replacement and owner updates.
  5. Arrange refitting and any separate specialist checks or sea trial.

Project clarity

Workshop decisions remain traceable

The owner should be able to distinguish yard, transport, specialist workshop, parts and project charges.

  • Repairability is not guaranteed before assessment.
  • Workshop and third-party quotations remain identifiable.
  • Related shaft, bearing or machinery work requires separate scope.
  • Additional work follows the agreed approval authority.

Typical work

What the photographs show

The library provides substantial real evidence of propeller condition review, marked repair areas, blade work and polished finished components.

  • Visible blade and edge condition
  • Marked workshop repair areas
  • Local material and fairing work
  • Final polished propeller surfaces

Running-gear coordination in Spain

We coordinate from Altea across the Costa Blanca and consider wider Spain and Mediterranean assignments when yard access, transport and suitable workshop support can be arranged.

  • Haul-out and removal logistics are location-specific.
  • Workshop transport and attendance are agreed separately.
  • Specialist availability affects the programme.

Propeller and running-gear questions

Can you repair a damaged yacht propeller?

We can coordinate specialist assessment and repair where the propeller material, damage and workshop judgement support it. Replacement may be advised instead.

Can you diagnose vibration from photographs?

No. Photographs can show visible damage, but vibration may involve balance, alignment, shafts, bearings, mounts or machinery and requires appropriate inspection.

Do you arrange removal and refitting?

Yes, when included in the agreed scope and suitable yard access and technicians are available.

Do you service saildrives and shafts?

We coordinate suitable specialists for saildrives, shafts and related components. The specific diagnostic and repair scope is agreed separately from propeller finishing.

Is a sea trial included?

Only when expressly agreed, safe and operationally appropriate. Haul-out work and a sea trial are separate activities with their own arrangements.

How long does propeller work take?

Timing depends on removal, workshop capacity, damage, material, parts and transport. We confirm the practical programme after assessment rather than publishing a generic duration.
