Guidance for Choosing a Rescue Net
We encourage prospects to evaluate a rescue net on the following:
- Vertical length (Should be based on attachment length/freeboard): The freeboard/attachment length is the vertical distance from where the net is fastened on the vessel down to the water line. Nets should be 1.5 meters to 2 meters (60 to 80 inches) longer than the freeboard. This is to provide an easier first step from within the water and provide enough length to use as par buckle.
- Width: We recommend at least 120 cm (4 feet wide). We recommend a wider net where possible. A wider rescue net is preferable for lifting injured persons with possible back, neck or head injury. In addition, a wider net will provide more room and strength to allow for persons to use the net as an emergency ladder.
- Flexibility of use during different rescue scenarios. Can the net be used as an emergency ladder, scramble net, or a rescue cradle (par buckle)? Can the net be manually deployed?
- Breaking strength
- Weight: The lighter the net, the easier it will be to manually deploy by one to four persons, without the use of a crane or davits
- Stowage room required. Typically, a net that can be stowed away from the elements will provide a better long term investment.
JASON'S CRADLE
The Jason’s Cradle Man Overboard (MOB) system is used globally in military, commercial, rescue, and leisure areas of the marine sector. Commercial units are fully SOLAS approved. They are designed to retrieve people quickly and horizontally from the water. This reduces the possibilities of “dry drowning” now more commonly known as Circum Rescue Collapse. The horizontal lift for a MOB has now become critical in the modern marine world.
MARKUS LIFENET
Based out of Iceland, Markus designs rescue nets, emergency ladders, and cradles for all applications including leisure and commercial vessels and platforms. The Markus nets are known for being lightweight, easy to use and comply with SOLAS standards. These nets can be used as a ladder or to roll an MOB out of the water horizontally. The horizontal lift for an MOB has now become critical in the modern marine world, to prevent Circum Rescue Collapse.
MARKUS MAN OVERBOARD SCRAMBLE-NET /CRADLE
Markus Scramble nets are designed to retrieve a MOB, either enabling a conscious MOB to climb aboard, or an unconscious MOB to be rolled par buckle onboard in a horizontal position. There is a new IMO standard (III/-17) for the retrieval of persons in the water. This standard will soon affect most operations, SOLAS vessels, passenger vessels, and commercial vessels carrying more than 12 persons, and including FRCs (Fast Rescue Craft).
MARKUS FRC NETS (FAST RESCUE CRAFT)
Markus FRC nets are designed to retrieve a MOB, either enabling a conscious MOB to climb aboard, or an unconscious MOB to be rolled par buckle onboard in a horizontal position. There is a new IMO standard (III/-17) for the retrieval of persons in the water. This standard will soon affect most operations, SOLAS vessels, passenger vessels, and commercial vessels carrying more than 12 persons, and including FRCs (Fast Rescue Craft).
