HEAT Capsule- As used by the Canadian Coast Guard (Search and Rescue Branch). The Hypothermia Evacuation and Aquatic Transport capsule is a neoprene, zippered bag with great hypothermia-protection value and considerable innate buoyancy, making it ideal for the evacuation and transport through the water of cold, wet victims. The heat-retaining liner is removable for easy drying and cleaning. The HEAT Capsule has saved lives. Made in the USA. Web site price $315, regular retail $385.

Rescue/Roll-Up Net- The easiest, and sometimes the only way, to bring a large helpless person on-board a boat. In operation, the Net serves as a 2:1 mechanical advantage system, effectively reducing the victim's weight by half. Also, several rescuers can haul on the Net at once, making for much easier lifting. Rated for several thousand pounds, the Rescue/Roll-Up Net comes in its own zippered mesh bag for ready deployment. Made in the USA. Web Site price$115, retail $129. .

Rescue Loop- A hands-free, totally secure method of attaching a line in a hurry to a helpless victim in the water. Strong (12,000 lb break strength), self-cinching and non-slip, the adjustable Loop makes removing a person from the ice or towing a person through the water easier on the rescuer and far more secure for the victim. Web site price $25, regular retail $29. Made in the USA.
Sterling Rope- In our many years in the water rescue business, we have had the opportunity to use all the major rope maufacturers' latest version of a 'water rescue line' in a continuing effort to find the best. Well, the search is over. We truly believe that Sterling Rope's WaterLine^TM is the finest of all available choices. The 5/16" line is ideal for throw bags (which they also supply, pre-stuffed) and swimmer tether lines, the 3/8" is our choice for 'tag lines' in the water-level pulley systems we routinely use in swiftwater and marine rescue, and the 7/16" line with its superb flexibility and super-slick sheath runs pulleys effortlessly. Made in the USA.

Cascade Helmets- Another 'new' discovery that has changed our way of thinking is the introduction of the Cascade water rescue helmet. This has proved to be so popular with the Ocean Rescue Systems instructors that we have all switched to these secure, rugged, very comfortable helmets. Cheap insurance for your gray matter and a must for all water rescuers, these highly visible helmets can come customized with retroflective tape boldly proclaiming RESCUE on the back panel. (We'll pay for the tape!) The most popular colors are yellow or red, but white and orange are available. Made in the USA.	Cascade Helmets- Sizes XS, S, M, L & XL Colors Red, Yellow, Orange, White, Black, Scarlet, Navy, Royal Blue, and Purple. Retail $54.95, Web Site $47.90. Did we mention that this helmet is guaranteed for LIFE?
