Ensure your crew and passengers are protected with IC Brindle’s range of certified man overboard (MOB) recovery equipment and body recovery solutions. Our man overboard systems are trusted worldwide across commercial shipping, offshore operations, military, emergency response, blue-light services, and leisure marine sectors for controlled casualty recovery from the water.
Recovery Systems Based on Operational Requirements
Man overboard recovery requirements vary depending on vessel freeboard, crew capability, casualty condition, and the level of lifting or mechanical assistance required. IC Brindle supplies complete MOB recovery systems designed for direct access recovery, assisted retrieval, vertical lifting, and condition-led casualty handling.
Our range includes Jason’s Cradle recovery systems, Fibrelight recovery ladders and cradles, SB Rescue Sling MOB Systems, MarkusNet recovery systems, scramble nets, ladders, davits, winches, lifting strops, stretchers, and recovery poles suitable for both rapid deployment and controlled recovery operations.
Direct Access & Low Freeboard Recovery
For low freeboard vessels or situations where casualties are conscious and capable of assisting recovery, direct access systems allow rapid boarding from the water using scramble nets, pilot ladders, embarkation ladders, recovery ladders, and climbable recovery systems. These solutions are commonly used where minimal crew assistance or fast deployment is required.
Assisted Recovery & Mechanical Advantage Systems
Where casualties are unable to self-board or additional control is required during recovery, assisted recovery systems provide mechanical advantage for safer retrieval. Recovery cradles, parbuckling systems, scoop recovery systems, SB Rescue Sling systems, and controlled lifting aids support recovery operations using limited crew numbers across varying freeboard heights.
Vertical Lift & High Freeboard Recovery
High freeboard vessels and offshore operations may require controlled lifting from water to deck using davits, winches, cranes, hoists, and lifting strops. These systems support structured casualty recovery where vertical lifting, controlled transfer, and deck-level retrieval procedures are necessary.
Medical & Condition-Led Recovery
In situations involving unconscious, immobilised, or trauma-risk casualties, recovery method is often determined by casualty condition rather than vessel type alone. IC Brindle supplies stretcher recovery systems, controlled horizontal lifting equipment, and medical evacuation support systems designed to prioritise casualty stability and controlled transfer from water to vessel.
Rescue Stretchers, Recovery Poles & Support Equipment
Our wider MOB equipment range includes rescue stretchers, MateSaver MOB poles, reach poles, boat hooks, lifting systems, telescopic davits, and marine cranes, which all can be used together as one system—designed to support safe recovery operations across commercial and emergency response sectors.
Forensic Recovery & Training Equipment
IC Brindle also supplies forensic body recovery equipment and specialist training products, including forensic body recovery bags trusted by dive teams and emergency services worldwide, alongside Ruth Lee man overboard training manikins for realistic recovery drills and casualty handling exercises.
