Captain Redeye Dive Services is in my opinion one of the best. He asked what my issue was and gave me a price which was very fair. He gave me a time that he would be at my boat and he arrived on time. Captain Matt is very pleasant to work with and truly a professional. I would not hesitate to hire him again.
Matt is incredible! He rescued a phone that was in 25+ ft in water in less than a minute. He was very responsive and eager to help. We will be keeping Matt on speed dial. Highly recommend anyone to use Captain Redeye. Thank you so much (again!)
Matt was extremely responsive and prompt when arranging his services. When he was completed, he provided a detailed debrief of the services he performed. I look forward to using him again with our busy charter yacht.
Awesome company to work with! Capt. Matt answered my call and was able to assist me very early in the morning like at 4 am jumping into the cold water and taking out rope in my wheels. He was on time and had all the necessary equipment needed to do the job. He even checked the strainers while he was down there! Thank you very much Capt. Matt for helping me out!
I contacted Matt and he returned my phone call in less than 10 minutes, and arrived the same day within a few hours of calling. My Burberry clutch, car keys, and a few other personal items were sitting at the bottom of a harbor/dock for almost 24 hours. Matthew successfully retrieved them in 5 minutes after checking the general location! I strongly recommend his recovery services!! Thank you again!
I had Matt come out to fix a leak in my pool. Price was reasonable. Service was phenomenal. Couldn’t ask for a better experience.
Why North Kingstown Boaters Choose Us
Diving work in North Kingstown centers on Wickford Harbor, a breakwater-protected harbor and noted hurricane hole on the West Passage, along with Allen Harbor to the north. Hull cleaning and zinc work serve the cruising sailboats and powerboats kept here, and the West Passage location means somewhat clearer, saltier water than the upper-bay coves. Shallow approaches around the harbor shape how we work near the docks. We handle each job in the water, owner operated, with 15 years of experience below the surface.
Clearer Water in the West Passage
Wickford Village is a famously preserved colonial harbor town, its protected inner harbor guarded by a breakwater and jetties with Fox Island off the approach and Poplar Point nearby. The West Passage water here is saltier and clearer than the upper-bay coves, though the approaches and the area behind the town dinghy dock run shallow with a soft shoreline. This is a quaint cruising harbor of family sailboats and powerboats rather than a megayacht port, and its sheltered inner basin is a well-known hurricane hole.
Frequently Asked Questions
What services do you offer in North Kingstown?
We provide boat maintenance, underwater repair, search and recovery, underwater inspection, and pool leak detection. From hull cleaning in Wickford Harbor to dock and mooring work, the diving is owner operated and done in the water. You can view all of our services here.
What kinds of diving projects do you handle most around here?
In the protected harbor, hull cleaning and zinc replacement on cruising sailboats and powerboats lead the work, along with dock and mooring upkeep. The shallow approaches and the soft shoreline behind the town dock also bring search and recovery and repair calls around the harbor and over at Allen Harbor.
What sets your diving work apart for boaters here?
We are owner operated, so the diver who takes your call is the one in the water on your boat. With 15 years of experience, we know the harbor's shallow approaches and clearer West Passage water and complete nearly everything in the water. We are licensed and insured, available around the clock, and clear about what we find below the waterline.
Is the water here clearer than the upper bay?
Generally, yes. The West Passage location gives Wickford somewhat saltier and clearer water than the brackish upper-bay coves, which can help on detailed work, though the inner approaches and the area behind the town dinghy dock run shallow with a soft bottom. We factor those conditions into each dive, which matters for underwater inspection and recovery in the harbor.
What makes Wickford Harbor a good hurricane hole?
The inner harbor is guarded by a breakwater and jetties that shelter it well, which is why it is considered one of the foremost hurricane holes on the coast. Boats ride out heavy weather here more safely than in exposed harbors, though storm prep and sound tackle still matter, which is where underwater inspection of your mooring pays off before a system arrives.
