SOS Danbuoy Man Overboard System SOS-6375

The first Inflatable Marker Dan Buoy to have the testing to International Standards (ISO 12402.9.2006).

The S.O.S Marine Man Overboard "Dan Buoy" resolves challenges of quickly deploying man overboard gear by bringing all pieces together in one fluorescent green/yellow unit with whistle. It is easy to see, easy to hear, easy to stow, and easy to deploy.

SOS Dan Buoy has the capability to fulfil a need for all boats; from navy boats to yachts and powerboats both small and large in the areas of professional safety and rescue.

Designed, manufactured and patented by SOS Marine, Australia. The SOS Inflatable Marker Dan Buoy is a new life-saving technology in person overboard situations; providing rapid flotation assistance to a person at risk of drowning.

Unique design features include the ability to have this compact valise ready for use. Just throw in the water. Superb functionality, portable, simple and easy to operate by all ages, and not restricted by geographic areas or language problems.

Once thrown into the water the SOS Dan Buoy is inflated standing 2.5 metres above the water, (using a similar mechanism to an inflatable life jacket).

It is weighted down to stand vertically in water, has a sea anchor to drift with the current-similar to a person in the water.

Highly visible up to 1,700 metres away.

Two handles are located just above the surface of the water to enable the person to hold onto awaiting rescue.

Attention to detail has been given to all aspects of this high quality manufactured SOS Dan Buoy Marker. It is easily stowed, low maintenance and reusable making the product environmentally sustainable.

The SOS Dan Buoy replaces existing products that have poor visibility for both the person in the water and for first response teams.

After being trialled and tested by the New Zealand Navy and the NSW Air Wing Police, it holds up exceptionally well in terms of originality, visibility, durability, maintenance and serviceability and can be used for highly diverse rescue operations.
