<p>A cleaning device for removing foulant from the hull (16) of a sea going vessel comprising a carriage (12) a reactor nozzle (40) aligned to produce a reactive force which opposes the force component of the cleaning nozzles (30) which tends to urge the carriage (12) away from the hull of the ship, and control members (24, 26) for displacing the carriage across the hull surface of the vessel. Previous devices had problems with controlling movement of a plurality of cleaning nozzles and keeping a carriage against the hull which are overcome by the instant cleaning device.</p> |
