    We install sensors and instruments underwater, and this drill has been incredibly dependable. Precise speed control, strong torque, and no water intrusion even after repeated use at depth.

    Attaching a wire brush to remove rust underwater is a game-changer. The drill has plenty of power and great control. Battery charging is fast, and the one-year warranty gives peace of mind.

    We bought this drill for our maintenance team, and it’s been outstanding. No more hauling equipment out of the water just to tighten or remove hardware. It works flawlessly in both fresh and saltwater.

    I use the Nemo Waterproof Drill regularly for yacht repairs. Switching between drill bits, screwdriver bits, and brushes is quick and easy. The 1/2-inch chuck is solid, and the battery lasts longer than expected.

    This drill performs just like a high-quality dry drill, but underwater. I’ve used it for bolts, screws, and wire brushing rust, all at depth. Reliable, powerful, and very well sealed. A must-have for marine work.

    The Nemo Waterproof Drill – 5M is exactly what we needed for dock and hoist work. Being able to drill and fasten hardware underwater saves us a huge amount of setup time. Solid torque, smooth operation, and zero issues in saltwater.
