Rip tides and under-tows are unpredictable and can transport an unwary swimmer from the security of the shore very quickly. The ResQmax™ can be deployed with an auto-inflating sling to provide buoyancy while the swimmer is pulled to safety. Capable of throwing an 8mm water rescue line up to 300 feet in a matter of seconds, the ResQmax™ is a rescue solution that does not put the rescuer at risk.

In man overboard situations at sea, even in daylight hours, loss of visual contact with the victim is almost immediate. When the sea state or weather factors are adverse, or during hours of darkness, search and rescue attempts are further complicated, and often futile. To mitigate the time lost waiting for the deployment of a rescue craft, the ResQmax™ line thrower can dramatically lower recovery time, and the risk of hypothermia in Northern climes, by delivering an auto-inflating sling and a rescue retrieval line to the victim in a matter of seconds, before visual contact is lost by the crew onboard.

When accidents leave victims stranded at otherwise inaccessible locations, the ResQmax™ may be used to establish the first vertical line and provide the rapid ascent rescuers need to reach a stranded victim. By throwing a climbing line, rescue teams can quickly access locations in rough and steep vertical terrain. The ResQmax™ can also be used for emergency evacuation of chairlifts, gondolas, and construction sites.
