General information about the Markusnet


The Markusnet is an unique mean to retrieve a man overboard manually as well as by crane, when every second counts, using vessel deck as rescue base.

The Markusnet is a revolutionary rescue device that enables one person to react immediately and effectively to a man overboard situation anywhere along a ship side or quay and two rescuers to lift the victim in seconds, despite freeboard height of vessel, thereby greatly increasing the casualty's chances of rescue. It is also ideal teaching tool to prevent man overboard hazards and tragedy as well as to train your crew to become professional in-water mob rescue team.

The Markusnet can also be used with crane. It provides possibility to lift/hoist casualty standing in the net, sitting in with legs facing ship or sitting out with bottom in the net. It can also be used to lift/hoist unconscious man overboard in horizontal position. It has also proven to provide realistic and safe ways to move people between liferaft and small boat or sinking aeroplane onto a larger ship in extreme situations at sea.

The Markusnet was originally developed and tested in co-operation with the Icelandic Lifesaving Association, the Danish Coast-guard and the Robert Gordon Institute of Technology in Aberdeen and is recommended by them for use onboard vessels and harbours.  The third generation of this unique rescue device was developed as an Eureka/Halios Development Project and tested by the Icelandic Directorate of Shipping, Maritime Safety Centre in Iceland and the Royal Navy of Netherlands.

The Markusnet is mandatory equipment on decked vessels in several countries. It is also standard equipment in all harbours in Iceland and is now the model for international standards. It is manufactured in six standard versions, depending on type and size of vessel and heigt from water to rescue deck.

Lloyd's Register / SOLAS approved

for use from quays, deck boats, ships and offshore installation
