Underwater recovery assembly
An underwater recovery assembly 10 for recovering material collected from a submerged substrate, particularly the seabed. The underwater recovery assembly comprises a support structure 20 and a hopper 30 connected to the support structure. The hopper has an axis XH, an opening 52 for admitting material into the hopper, and a closure mechanism 54a and 54b to close an internal volume 50 of the hopper. The hopper is rotatable around the axis relative to the support structure between a first configuration in which the opening is orientated in a first direction, and a second configuration in which the opening is orientated in a second direction. The hopper may be adapted to be reversibly attached to at least one container (207, Fig 10A) containing seabed material. Seabed material can be admitted into the internal volume of the hopper from the container while the container is attached to the hopper and the hopper is in the second configuration.
