Designed to be used for the following scenarios: Man overboard search and rescue exercises in the open ocean streams, lakes or other inland waterways.
Ruth Lee manikins are designed to represent the correct anatomic weight distribution of a real person, to ensure that your training is as realistic and effective as possible.
Used by the Emergency Services, including RNLI and Coastguard, UK/US Navy and NATO forces.
- Floats horizontally, vertically or at 45 degrees to simulate a live person or dead body - achieved by redistributing foam pieces within the overalls within a matter of seconds
- The tough nylon mesh carcass allows the water to penetrate quickly, allowing the legs to drop beneath the surface and only the head and shoulders are visible, if desired
- Dry weight 40kg (adult) increases to approximately 65kg retrieval weight from water
- Bright orange overalls and SOLAS reflective tape on the head make the manikin highly visible
- Strong webbing loop at the back allows easy handling, storage and suspension for drying
- Built in Polypropylene strips allows flexibility in the water but prevents the manikin from bending in half when using recovery like a Jason's Cradle
- Comes complete with overalls and boots which are easily replaced if damaged
