Our Dominican Republic shipyard offers controlled haul-out operations designed for safe and efficient vessel maintenance. Using a pneumatic airbag system, vessels are carefully extracted from the water and transferred onto a dedicated hardstanding, where hull cleaning, coating, valve inspections, propulsion work and underwater component repairs are performed.
This method provides a flexible and cost-effective alternative to traditional dry docking, ideal for tugboats, port-service vessels and harbour fleets. Each operation is managed by our technical teams—from manoeuvre preparation and alignment to securing the vessel on land—ensuring precision, safety and full compliance with SYM Naval’s engineering standards.
SYM Naval acts as a technical partner for shipowners and cruise operators carrying out dry dock repairs outside their home region. Our certified mobile teams integrate smoothly with shipyards anywhere in the world, ensuring that every phase of the project is executed under our engineering criteria and quality standards.
We oversee critical-path activities such as steelworks, piping renewals, shaft and propulsion overhauls, mechanical repairs and electrical system upgrades. Through close coordination with shipyard supervisors and Class surveyors, we guarantee compliant, safe and precisely executed results, delivering the same reliability abroad as in our own facilities.
