The 2010 RescYou liferafts have been updated with important features. We think in detail to ease boarding and reduce discomforts during stay such as seasickness, hypothermia and the cold. We have also made every effort to improve visibility.



The new 2010 features



The fluorescent yellow canopy enhances visibility from a distance, and is easier seen in bad weather and foggy conditions. Fluorescent yellow is chosen as it is a great contrast colour to grey and dark blue - the colours of the sea. The material is further certified according to the High Visibility
Norm EN471 for traffic visibility.


Two windows with curtains provide a 360 degree view of the horizon which minimizes seasickness. Further, windows enhance the chance of survival as users can look out in search of rescuers without opening the liferaft and risking cooling down.


VIKING has increased bodily comfort for unlucky sailors with blue inner linings designed to reduce anxiety and seasickness. It is required for SOLAS liferafts and is transferred to this liferaft to enhance comfort.


To facilitate easy and quick boarding. The improved RescYou™ Pro has handles placed above the boarding ramp.

RescYou™ Pro is available in sizes: 4, 6 or 8 persons, valise or container, rail or deck mounted.
