Welcome to QUIKSLING LIMITED. This is our webshop.
We manufacture our patented tension-activated man overboard recovery device known as the QUIKSLING.
From our manufacturing base at Peterhead in Scotland (U.K). we ship internationally for new-build vessels. Only small bracket works are required to install the cabinet.
Here is one of two units on new build Lunar Bow PD 165, as fitted by Karstensen's Shipyard in Skagen, Denmark.
If you own a high sided vessel, this is a good first option:
it is a very hard decision to launch a FRC into heavy seas.
A crew member in the sea may only have minutes to live. At such a time, you can rely on the QUIKSLING to save life.
A proven lifesaver, built to secure a person in rough seas, it is fully certified by Lloyd's for recovery up to 30m height.
This certification proves it is a suitable means of recovery for all ocean traffic. It is ideal for large sea-going vessels.
The question of unconscious recovery often arises when first seeing the kit before understanding its true purpose.
Overboard persons mostly fall unconscious after a time. Only a tiny percentage of persons who splash down into water will either be or immediately become unconscious. The purpose of this kit is to prevent the conscious person from ending up unconscious due to a very slow recovery.
We have proved that fast remote capture, out on the sea, can beat the onset time of unconsciousness and save life.
QUIKSLING is accepted by the MCA, DMA, NMA & FMA for carriage onboard vessels: as extra life-saving equipment.
It is SOLAS approved with its Lloyd's Register certification.
We are always proud to see it there alongside a lifebuoy: to take over for recovery - or to be used from the outset.
QUIKSLING provides a simple and comfortable recovery.
It is very well liked by all crew members who are at risk.
