Rescue Net

Man Overboard Recovery Net for Working Vessels

The Bait Saviour Rescue Net is designed to help crews recover a person from the water and bring them safely back aboard a working vessel. Its compact design allows a crew member to deploy the net quickly, providing support during man-overboard recovery situations.

How the Rescue Net Works

The equipment

A practical recovery system for crews.

The Rescue Net stays ready for immediate deployment. Its frame suspends the net in the water as the casualty is guided into it. Retrieval ropes then roll the supported person up and over the gunwale or onto the deck.

It is designed to support a conscious or unconscious casualty without a rescuer entering the water.

How it works

Deploy. Position. Recover.

Simple steps for a fast response, illustrated with the original product diagrams.

Before you take it aboard

The practical details.

Check the size, plan where it will be kept and make sure the crew knows how to use it.

01 / Vessel fitWhich Rescue Net size do I need?Match the configuration to vessel length and freeboard.

Measure your vessel length and the freeboard where a casualty would be recovered. The Rescue Net comes in five configurations, each 4 ft wide, with lengths from 6 to 15 ft. Use the size selector above to compare the vessel and freeboard guidance for each option.

If your measurements sit near a boundary, send us the details so we can help confirm the right configuration before supply.

02 / ReadinessHow should we keep it ready?Stow it accessibly, inspect it and train the crew.

Keep the packed net where the crew can reach it promptly. Plan and check a suitable attachment point on your vessel, and inspect the net, ropes and snap hooks as part of your onboard checks.

Practise the vessel’s man overboard procedure with the crew before an emergency. The product information sheet covers the net’s configuration and emphasises training, inspection and suitable vessel attachment.

03 / RecoveryHow does the recovery work?Deploy beside the casualty, support them, then retrieve.

The system is designed for one crew member to deploy. Lower the net beside the casualty and guide them into its suspended frame. The net supports a conscious or unconscious person while the retrieval ropes bring them alongside and aboard.

See the illustrated three-step sequence above. Crew training and your vessel’s own recovery procedure remain essential.

04 / CareHow do we look after the net?Rinse, dry, inspect and store it ready for use.

Rinse the net after use, allow it to dry and store it protected from avoidable damage. Check the net, ropes and hardware regularly and before relying on it for an emergency.

The product information sheet lists a minimum four-year service life with correct care. If any component looks damaged or worn, ask us for guidance before putting it back into service.
