The 600' Ocean Rescue Bag's construction consist of plastic coated mesh sides
with "Rescue" markings and vinyl bottom. This versatile bag may be held upright
by a single carry handle or on it's side by adjustable neck/shoulder carry strap.
Container's mouth is controlled with cinch cord and cord lock. Line stored within is
colored for bright contrast and ultra violet light protection. The 600' length hollow
braid rope is constructed with a 1200 lb. functional limit strength when new. A
number of safety features have been added. First, in emergencies, a simply buckle
release disconnects the rope's terminal end from bag's bottom. Next, we've
installed a buoyant float to prevent rescue end from sinking. Last and most
important, the rescue swimmers harness, connected to the stainless steel snap
hook, is filled with buoyant foam for comfort, buoyancy and safety.

SUGGESTIONS ON HOW TO USE THIS PRODUCT
An ocean beach setting. You are faced with one or more distressed swimmer(s)
unexpectedly caught in a strong outgoing rip current with rough surf. The first
scenario is conducted by lifeguards. The second scenario takes place after hours
by trained Public Safety personnel (not trained lifeguards).

TO READY THIS PRODUCT FOR LIFEGUARD'S USE
The Ocean Rescue Bag is pre-positioned in front, slightly to side of lifeguard's
stand so that responding lifeguard can grab bag's handle with strong hand as he or
she runs by. Plastic draw cord lock is preset with bag's mouth slightly opened
(approximately a 3" diameter). Lifeguard's buoyant web harness should partially
protrude, folded to straddle bag's single carry handle.

SUGGESTED USE FOR LIFEGUARD RESPONSE
First Lifeguard on scene, we'll call the Buoy-Swimmer, responds with a rescue
flotation device (RFD). The Buoy-Swimmer's job is to quickly get on scene and
stabilized the distressed swimmer(s) with buoyancy.

When backup is needed, a second Lifeguard called the Line-Swimmer responds.
This responder grabs the Ocean Rescue Bag's handle, and within seconds may,
with free hand while running, pull the swimmer's harness from bag, up arm, over
head, and across chest. The Rescue Bag is now placed by waters edge at closest
point to victims. Water entry is made. Swimming to scene, the Line-Swimmer
"hooks up" with Buoy-Swimmer and assists in the control of everyone being
rescued.

A third lifeguard we'll call the Linesman, (line puller, or line tender) may feed the line
and will be needed to pull rope as appropriate. Upon arrival, Linesman grabs bag
with bag's mouth facing incident, and places the adjustable carry strap over
shoulder or neck. With both hands free, Linesman removes and maintains tether
rope as necessary. After Line-Swimmer and Buoy-Swimmer have "hooked up",
Linesman, while facing incident, pulls line hand-over-hand to shore, taking care to
maintain constant visual contact, not run backwards, pull too fast, or pull victims /
rescuers over breaking waves.

SUGGESTIONS FOR AFTER HOURS RESPONSE BY PUBLIC SAFETY
PERSONNEL
Most Fire, Police or EMS personnel are not required to maintain strong swimmer
certification. We strongly suggest that Public Safety rescue swimmer's outfit
includes (but is not limited to) swim fins and lifejackets. This buoy and line
equipment mentioned in this scenario supplements their lack of strong swimming
skills.

For distressed victim(s), a tethered, Public Safety Rescue Swimmer makes initial
response with the highly buoyant 50" Grasp Aid RFD fastened to the end of the
land based Ocean Rescue Reel or Ocean Rescue Bag. Upon approaching
victim(s), rescuer extends the buoyancy device to the victim(s) while maintaining a
safe distance. Upon stabilization, Rescue Swimmer and distressed swimmer(s)
are cautiously hauled back to shore.
