Description

This FastFind Crew1 AIS Man Overboard (MOB) device is designed for use in the event of a man overboard or personal emergency.

When activated, the AIS MOB device transmits an AIS MOB message containing the user’s position and ID via AIS (Automatic Identification System). The transmission is then received by AIS equipped vessels within local radio range.

As the device includes an inbuilt GPS receiver, the user’s location is transmitted, dramatically reducing the time taken to locate and increasing rescue capability even in poor visibility.

The MOB device also features a flashing white light to help rescuers pinpoint the user’s precise location in the water.

The FastFind Crew1 is designed to be carried in the belt pouch as supplied but can also be fitted to lifejackets using the supplied clip options.

After the lifejacket is inflated, pull the activation cord downwards, releasing the red cap and deploying the antenna. Transmissions will then start shortly after, and the light will flash.

This Crew1 device can be stored in a standby mode, ready to automatically activate on contact with water.
