From Guy Lombardo Marina to the Freeport and South Shore Yacht Clubs, Final Dive Co. delivers underwater hull service, dock and bulkhead inspections, and recovery across Middle Bay and the Jones Inlet approaches.
Our Freeport service area covers Woodcleft Canal, Middle Bay, Jones Inlet, and Reynolds Channel — including Guy Lombardo Marina, The Freeport Inn and Marina, Freeport Jones Inlet Marina, and Yankee Clipper Marina, and the waters off Freeport Yacht Club and South Shore Yacht Club. Don't see your marina or dock? We travel the whole shoreline — call us and we'll come to you.
Avoided an expensive haul-out thanks to Final Dive Co. They inspected my 45ft yacht's hull, swim platform, and anchor system in one visit. Clean report and great advice. These guys go where others won't.
We have a private dock and finally found a team we had an excellent experience working with. They provided specialized underwater labor.
After last winter's ice damage I called Final Dive Co for a seawall and piling inspection. Same-day response, clear plan, saved me from bigger problems. A++++.
Every body of water on Long Island dives differently. Here is what our crews plan for when we work South Oyster Bay, Jones Inlet, the Freeport canals and Middle Bay.
Shallow sand and silt with soft mud through the canal system and dredged basins. Jones Inlet is high-energy shifting sand.
South Oyster Bay behind the barrier island runs a modest tidal range, but Jones Inlet moves serious water and the canals see real flow on the tide stages. Inlet-adjacent work is current-scheduled.
One to four feet, degrading quickly with wind and after storms. The dense canal system holds turbidity longer than open bay because there is less flushing.
Heavy. Freeport's canal system is warm, sheltered and slow-moving, which is close to ideal growing conditions. Boats kept in the canals foul faster than boats on open bay moorings.
Freeport's bulkheaded canal network is aging infrastructure sitting in a tidal environment. Bulkhead toe scour and tieback condition are the recurring findings, and both are invisible from the property side.
Usually you cannot tell from above. The early signs are below the waterline: erosion at the toe, loss of backfill through failing sheeting joints, and corrosion at the tieback connections. By the time you see settlement or leaning from the yard, the underwater problem is well advanced. That is what an underwater bulkhead inspection is for.
Yes. We work the full canal network, the Nautical Mile waterfront and the South Oyster Bay and Middle Bay shoreline, including private residential bulkheads and docks.
We work the inlet approaches with operations timed to the current. Jones Inlet moves a lot of water and we plan around the tide rather than fighting it.
