Silzig lifebuoy

PLASTIMO - SILZIG LIFEBUOY - INNOVATIVE SAFETY

Quick to use, the Silzig life buoy has a cylindrical shape that allows easy passage through the water. This makes it easy to pull the castaway to the boat , whatever the weather. By passing the buoy under the armpits and closing the front of the buoy, the victim can be lifted aboard the vessel without the need for a hoist or ladder. Its two sturdy handles improve grip, making it easier and safer to get back on the boat.

The shape and lightness of the Silzig man-overboard lifebuoy mean it takes up very little space, making it easy to stow away and always at hand . This buoy will fit perfectly along a lanyard, balcony or at the bottom of a RIB in which there may not be much room for more conventional lifebuoys.
