Safety at sea is becoming easier to manage with the expansion of a MOB recovery range.
Ocean Safety has extended its Jon Buoy Man Overboard (MOB) Recovery range with the addition of a soft case option for its Jon Buoy Inflatable Rescue Sling and its Jon Buoy Inflatable Horseshoe.
Ocean Safety’s managing director, Alistair Hackett, said the soft case option for the sling and horseshoe ensure “the product is easier to stow and use…making it more versatile for use across a wider range of user groups – both on the water and along the water’s edge”.
More stowage options
The new soft case gives the Jon Buoy Inflatable Rescue Sling and Inflatable Horseshoe more stowage options onboard and is easier to deploy when required.
Offering flexibility when it comes to positioning, the new soft case option comes with a hook & loop universal mounting system, enabling this vital safety equipment to be mounted anywhere, from bulkhead to guard rail, or on a land-based fixture.
The Jon Buoy range incorporates the retro-reflective Glo Lite technology that significantly enhances the visibility of the hi-vis fabric of the inflatable rescue sling and horseshoe, increasing perception during dark conditions, aiding casualty location which, in turn, leads to reduced time before recovery.
Enhanced internal protection provided by the new soft cases has also increased the service interval to two years for the soft case Jon Buoy Inflatable Rescue Sling and Inflatable Horseshoe, as opposed to the one-year service interval afforded by the hard case option.
