Ocean Safety Ltd.

Ocean Safety has extended its industry leading 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.

Utilising the latest technology and meeting the needs of the market, the marine safety equipment specialist has developed a more compact, durable storage option, with a modern aesthetic, for its innovative lifesaving product range.

The new soft case gives the Jon Buoy Inflatable Rescue Sling and Inflatable Horseshoe
more stowage options onboard and easier to deploy when required.

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 hard case option.

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 cutting-edge retro-reflective Glo Lite technology that significantly enhances the visibility of the hi-vis fabric of the inflatable rescue sling and horseshoe making them highly reflective, increasing perception during dark conditions, aiding casualty location which, in turn, leads to reduced time before recovery.

The Jon Buoy inflatable horseshoe is a direct replacement for the traditional horseshoe lifebuoys. Available in single or double versions, the compact units come fitted with an automatic inflation system as standard, as well as an oral inflation tube and a whistle.

The Jon Buoy inflatable rescue sling is specifically designed for the quick and easy recovery of a casualty in the water, with the sling automatically inflating when it comes into contact with the water.

“Through ongoing research and customer feedback, our products are constantly evolving to ensure we are meeting the exacting requirements of the market,” says Ocean Safety’s managing director, Alistair Hackett. “The new soft case for our Jon Buoy Inflatable Rescue Sling and Inflatable Horseshoe is a prime example of this, ensuring the product is easier to stow and use, and making it more versatile for use across a wider range of user groups – both on the water and along the water’s edge.”

All products from Ocean Safety’s Jon Buoy product range will be available to view on stand 03.310 at Metstrade. To arrange an appointment to discuss the new range at the show, please contact Amy Grealish on agrealish@oceansafety.com.

Ocean Safety, specialist in the worldwide supply, distribution, service and hire of marine safety equipment, is launching a new range of Man Overboard (MOB) retrieval equipment at Metstrade, 16-18 November 2021.

Expanding its extensive selection of leisure marine safety equipment, the company’s new MOB range comprises four products designed to make reaching, and subsequent removal of a casualty from the water, easier for crew members left onboard a vessel or for emergency rescue services.

“We pride ourselves on leading the way in safety products for the marine leisure industry,” says Ocean Safety’s managing director, Alistair Hackett. “Our new MOB range, with its innovative selection of casualty recovery equipment, highlights our commitment to providing the boating community with the best safety options available so they can enjoy their time afloat, secure in the knowledge that they are prepared should an incident occur.”

The products in Ocean Safety’s new MOB range include:

Ocean Safety’s new Throw Line is designed for use in rescue situations at sea from a vessel, along the shoreline or from the edge of any waterway.
Currently used by the Scottish Police Force and other emergency organisations, the throw line is durable, highly visible and perfectly weighted to allow for increased accuracy in an under or over arm throw, as well as providing a compact storage solution for the 8mm diameter buoyant line.
Available in a 20-metre or 36-metre length, the latter being World Sailing Offshore Racing compliant, the throw line has a breaking load of 700kg, can be supplied with or without a bracket and is designed to allow easy repacking.

Ocean Safety Throwing Recovery Strop
The big brother of the Throw Line, Ocean Safety’s Throwing Recovery Strop is an innovative combination of a throwing line and lifting strop allowing a rescuer to reach and recover a casualty in the water with a single piece of equipment.
The weight of the 36-metre line and padded lifting strop allows for accurate deployment to the casualty.
With a high visibility, durable sock lined soft casing, the throwing recovery strop is easy to repack and can be mounted on a bracket or stored in a cockpit locker.

Ocean Safety MOB Rescue Sling

Easy to deploy with visual instructions printed on the durable soft outer valise, the lifting strop is long enough to go over an inflated lifejacket and has retro reflective tape to improve visibility of the casualty.
The MOB rescue sling’s valise has been designed so that it can be easily fitted to a guard rail, and is available in white or high visibility yellow.

Ocean Safety MOB Ladder
Designed for simple self-recovery in a man overboard situation, the Ocean Safety MOB Ladder is easily deployed from the water to allow a MOB to re-board a vessel unaided.

Available in 3-metre or 4-metre ladder lengths, the MOB ladder is fastened to the guard rail of the vessel during operation. It’s easy to repack and while not in use it can be stored discreetly in its stylish and durable white valise.
