Military & Commercial Diving Services

Spurs line cutters ensure ropes and debris do not hinder your vessel’s performance while underway.

Imagine you’re finally able to take your boat out on the water, it’s a beautiful day, you’re cruising along and all of a sudden, “clunk!” a line wraps around your boat’s propeller and you’re dead in the water. What do you do now? Call for a tow? Dive under to try and free the entanglement yourself?

None of these are things that you want to have to worry about when you’re trying to enjoy your time out on the water!

The reality is there’s a lot more floating in our waterways than just water! Discarded fishing line, drift nets, crab traps and other debris litter the waterways making your journey an almost invisible obstacle course. It’s only a matter of time before YOU get STUCK!

Underwater hazards can cause damage to seals and bearings, and result in costly, unscheduled haul outs. Worst case scenario – your vessel could actually SINK. You shouldn’t have to worry about any of these factors on your next trip. – Spurs Marine

Integration and Purpose

Running gear fouling and rope entanglements are one of the biggest factors resulting in the loss of vessel operation and performance. Ropes, cables, and nets can cause decreased water movement across the cutless bearings, engine RPM loss, and damage to the strut and propeller when not quickly removed.

Line cutters are a very popular solution for vessels with shaft driven inboards commonly found on motor yachts and sailing vessels.

Spurs is the industry leader for anti-fouling hardware on both commercial and recreational vessels. Hull2Prop is a Spurs dealer offering repair, replacement, maintenance, and purchasing for all Spurs products. Call us today to learn more about what Spurs line cutters can do for you.

Pricing and Fitment

The team at Hull2Prop offers underwater installation and continued maintenance for all Spurs line cutter products.

Correct sizing and installation of any line cutter is crucial for functionality and optimal vessel performance. Several components of any line cutter require the use of underwater tools for drilling and mounting. Our full line of underwater power tools ensures that our team can handle any installation for both standard and specialty vessels.
