Evacuation Chute
The evacuation chute provides a simple, safe and reliable method of transferring evacuees from deck levels down to sea level. It is divided into cells with speed retarding slides running at opposing angles in a zigzag effect. Openings in the chute located behind each retarding slide provide easy entry and exit at any level. The speed retarding slides also permit evacuees wearing lifejackets, survival suits, breathing apparatus and even on stretchers to pass safely through the chute.
