JONBUOY RECOVERY MODULE / MK5 GLO-LITE Marker Buoy / black

Efficiency, innovation, and design!
The JONBUOY recovery module has been specially designed to aid in the rescue of a man overboard and is accepted as a replacement for other traditional rescue systems such as horseshoes, collars and loops. This marker buoy complies with ISAF racing regulations.

A lever at the back of the repackable, light and compact case should be activated to release the self-inflating module to the casualty in the water. The low weight, slim, black container can be easily fitted on the rail thanks to the supplied clamps. The recovery module contains a practical equipment bag that can be used to put additional safety equipment in such as an AIS transponder, PLB, POB or torch.

The JONBUOY Mk5 Recovery Module uses innovative retro-reflective hi-vis polyester fabric, which is also used for high-visibility clothing. Furthermore, thanks to the visible mast with red flag and yellow, highly reflective material, the high buoy is extremely noticeable and clearly visible even in bad weather conditions. The reflective strips and automatic, high mounted light on the mast ensure maximum visibility immediately after triggering, even with weak light sources.

Featuring a low freeboard for easy entry, boarding the safe buoyancy platform on the intended side is simple, and the large ballast pocket and added keel weight ensures the rescue module remains ready for boarding even in wind and waves.

An AIS attachment point allows the attachment of a handy sea rescue transmitter. With a 5m throw line that can be passed or thrown to the rescue boat and lifting loop together with a fully supported, reinforced lifting mechanism on the mast to additionally help quickly lift the casualty back on board. For easy position marking in the event of an MOB, the module also provides protection from the elements and increases survival time, making recovery much easier for the crew and casualty. After use, the rescue module can be repackaged and the CO₂ cartridge replaced, ready for deployment in the event of an MOB.
