Our recommendations for training Navy personnel, Coastguards, Lifeguards and Search & Rescue professionals around the world
'Make training interesting and realistic and you will keep your teams thinking and engaged'
The water rescue manikins of choice for British and US Navies, all UK Fire Services and NATO forces worldwide - these dummies perfectly simulate unconscious casualties in water.
The two most popular models are Man Overboard and Search and Rescue.
The man overboard model is supplied with bright orange overalls and SOLAS reflective tape on the head and is designed to be as conspicuous as possible.
The Search & Rescue model is supplied with black overalls and a black mesh hood to cover the head - this model is designed to be as inconspicuous as possible to enable rescue teams to practice search, as well as their recovery techniques.
The Search & Rescue manikin is made to the same specification as the Man overboard model and has exactly the same level of buoyancy. Both models have two pockets to the lower legs of the overalls - to make the manikin float horizontally simply move the 6 foam pieces from the front chest to the pockets on each leg.
