The SOLAS (Safety of Life at Sea) regulations require onboard training to refresh the knowledge of all crew members and verify the safe operation through regular training, drills and exercises - our manikins can be a vital tool in achieving that.

This model is a variation on the Man Overboard manikin developed in conjunction with the British Navy and the RNLI and is the most popular model within the shipping industry for all emergency training drills including: mandatory Enclosed Space Entry and rescue drills, Abandon Ship and Emergency Evacuation exercises. This manikin can be used for Man Overboard exercises (using a buoyancy aid) or you can use our specific Man Overboard model which is lighter at 40Kg. These manikins provide a realistic challenge that will help improve procedures, communication and the overall preparedness of your crew.
