Inflatable Rescue SledsThe RS Series Rescue Sled is a water rescue craft for use in crisis rescues i.e. flood rescue, that occur primarily in rivers, flooded urban and coastal areas, mountains and lakes. Fully inflatable, the Rescue Sled is lightweight and portable, both inflated and deflated. It is easy to manoeuvre, and can be paddled, pulled by hand, or towed by a jet ski, boat or small hovercraft. The Rescue Sled has a flat bottom, making it exceptionally stable and suitable for use in very shallow water (from only 50mm), making it perfect for help in flood rescue. The open, low stern assists with casualty recovery, and enables quick rescue of wheelchair users. Once on the sled, individuals can sit on the floor surrounded by high inflatable sides, offering a comfortable and reassuring rescue craft. The Rescue Sled is available in four standard sizes; 3, 5, 10 and 15 man. The 3 and 5 man sleds include a removable bolster and are ideal for swift water rescue. The 10 and 15 man sleds have a large floor space and capacity, making them the perfect choice for emergency evacuation and flood rescue situations. To increase capacity, sleds can be linked together, and larger sizes (up to 45 man) can be manufactured on request. - Exceptionally tough and durable
