The RNLI will be equipping all its Shannon Class fleet with SeaSafe’s multi award winning Hypo Hoist


Hypo Hoist from Seasafe
“It’s well known that lifting an MOB vertically can cause a rapid drop in blood pressure, greatly increasing the chances of cardiac failure and neurological malfunctions, but Hypo Hoist significantly reduces such risks – and the potential problems caused by the effects of immersion hypothermia – by recovering the casualty in a constant horizontal position during and after recovery, and we believe this was a key factor in the RNLI’s decision to adopt it.”The main component of Hypo Hoist is its dual function cradle, which can be used to either hoist and roll the MOB up the freeboard, level with the deck and back onto the craft, or to operate as a boarding ladder with hand holds to allow quick and easy access back onto the vessel.
