A system for cleaning a structure arranged in a body of water. The system includes: a vehicle operable to move through the water and clean the structure; a tether connectable between the vehicle and a fixed position; a deployment mechanism securable relative to the structure and configured to move the vehicle into, and out of, the water; and a processing unit configured to communicate with the vehicle and the deployment mechanism. The processing unit is configured to execute a repeating cleaning schedule to cause the deployment mechanism to operate to move the vehicle into the water, the vehicle to operate to clean at least a portion of the structure, and the mechanism to operate to remove the vehicle from the water.
