HOW IT WORKS

A. Immediately throw Dan Buoy (www.danbuoy.com) or other flotation device toward person in the water and bring boat head to wind.

B. Remove REELSLING from stowage bag and drop the sling into water behind boat, allowing it to trail astern, drawing tether line from bag

C. Sail boat in wide circle around person in water with sling and tether line trailing astern. Due to the circling procedure, the sling and/or the line should come in contact with the patient.

Once contact is made, turn boat head to wind and drop all sails. The person in the water should place the sling over their head and under arms. As boat drifts backwards, start to pull in tether line to bring person towards boat for recovery. Note: Use of the device does not guarantee the safety or rescue of the patient. Its effectiveness is considerably reduced in rough or breaking seas and surf.
