Safety at Sea - Research & Development
We are best known for our Lifesling Crew Overboard recovery device. This device allows shorthanded crews to recover a crew member who has fallen overboard. It works equally well for power and sailboats, and recent studies in San Francisco confirm that it is still the best all-around COB recovery product in the market.
The committee has also published other studies - a 1986 crew overboard study, a 1995 anchor study, a 1994-1996 crew overboard light study, and a 1999 harness and tether study.
