RESCUE NET FOR MAN OVERBOARD

Man Overboard Recovery Net

Product Presentation

Ensure the safety of your crew with our Man Overboard Recovery Net. This essential equipment is designed to facilitate the recovery of a person who has fallen into the water, whether they are injured or conscious. Available in several sizes, it adapts to different types of boats and freeboard.

Choosing the Recovery Net

The size of your net depends on the freeboard of your boat as well as its length. Here are the available options:

• 4′ x 6′: For freeboard of less than 3′ or for boats under 40′
• 4′ x 8′: For freeboard of less than 4′ or for boats over 40′
• 4′ x 10′: For freeboard of less than 5′ or for boats over 45′
• 4′ x 12′: For freeboard of less than 6′ or for boats over 55′
• 4′ x 15′: For freeboard of less than 7′ or for boats over 60′

Note: Opting for a longer version is recommended, as it allows the net to descend deeper into the water, facilitating access for a conscious person.

Product Features

• Orange Color: In accordance with safety standards, this net is visible, making it easily identifiable in challenging maritime conditions.
• Recovery Device: Designed to recover a person overboard, whether injured or unconscious. It can also serve as a boarding assist system for a conscious person.
• Wide Mesh: The mesh is wide enough to allow a person wearing rain boots to climb easily.
• Stainless Steel Hooks: Two sturdy hooks provide secure attachment to the boat’s rail.
• Lead Weights: Located at the bottom of the net, they ensure that the net remains taut in the water, even in current conditions.

Recommended Use

We recommend using a long gaff to bring the victim closer to the vessel. This gaff can also be used to pass the retrieval line around the other side of the victim, facilitating recovery.

Manufacturing

This net is locally manufactured in our workshops, ensuring optimal quality and adherence to safety standards.

Regulatory Compliance

The man overboard recovery net is mandatory according to regulations on the safety of commercial fishing vessels, except in the following cases:

• If the user of the vessel is alone on board.
• If a recovery vessel is on board.

Important: This description is a summary and does not replace the regulation. In case of any discrepancy between this information and the regulation, the regulation prevails. According to the recommendations of the Transport Canada office in Rimouski.
