"An ingenious pop-up net with an integral lifting system that can be deployed over an unconscious casualty to lift them out of the water. It has a tubular shape and once dropped over the casualty vertically, it rotates through 90° to bring them up horizontally. We didn’t actually test this device but thought it deserved a mention. 

  • Flat-pack system makes it easy to stow in a cockpit locker 
  • Should work on unconscious casualties
  • Clear instructions on the outside of the case
  • Might be awkward to handle in rough or windy weather
  • Could get tangled up in things like boat hooks or the casualty’s tether"
