What is a rescue line?

In an MOB situation, quick reactions can often be the difference between life or death in rough seas. Make sure you keep your throwline handy on deck and know where it is kept so you can get it quickly in an emergency. MOB rescue lines are usually made of polypropylene, they should be floatable with good grip. High visibility colours make it easier for the casualty to see the line, it also helps prevent the rescuer from accidentally running over the line in the water. <a href="https://www.svb24.com/en/category/plastimo/rigging-useful-lines-multifunctional-rope-rescue-lines.html#whatisarescueline">Read more</a>

How do you use a rescue line?

Your throwline is essential lifesaving equipment for swimmers that come into difficulty in the water.Lines are usually coiled and mounted at the stern. It can then unravel aft while the boat stops. At the loose end there is often a rescue sling, rescue ring or other rescue system. This is often thrown to the person overboard in an emergency. If the casualty is unable to reach the rescue device themself, the boat should circle the person in the water in a large arc. In doing so, the line will unwind until the end and then be pulled towards the person. <a href="https://www.svb24.com/en/category/plastimo/rigging-useful-lines-multifunctional-rope-rescue-lines.html#howdoyouusearescueline">Read more</a>
