Abstract

In connection with sailboats, for the hauling up of a man overboard previously known rescue systems have been either little useful or inconvenient for normal use of the boat. The invention provides for a more advantageous equipment, in that it comprises a base part designed as a compact unit with clamping jaws for safe fixation to a side shroud of the boat in a desired height position thereon, such that the whole equipment, when required, may be brought into an operative position from a stowed away position in an easy and rapid manner, without requiring special fixture or operation means on the boat. As its top the base part has a rope pulley for the rescue rope and a nearby rope clamp ("frog") for this rope, and a pivot arm is pivoted to the base part closely therebeneath, with a corresponding rope clamp located relatively near the pivot axis, such that the pivot arm can be operated in being swung up and down about a horizontal position and with a low gearing of the movement of its rope clamp for the hauling in of the rope. Hereby the equipment can be both mounted and operated in a very safe and effective manner by a single person.
