Water/Ice Rescue Response Kit A


  • Large Water Rescue Gear Bag- Heavy cordura construction with zippered top access and carry handles. (M7)
  • Stearns Ice Rescue Suit (size large) - Neoprene constructed dry suit with tapered legs, five-fingered gloves and attached boots for up to 6 hours of hypothermic protection. (i595)
  • If victim is beyond reach, a 75' Second Chance Rescue Throw Bag is thrown to land past victim. (B5)
  • Stearns Neoprene Suit repair kit contains various sized neoprene patches and Aqua Seal cement. (590Kit)
  • 1 Pelican Super Duper MityLite light, powered by 2 AA batteries (included) are attached to a removable neoprene visor. Visor worn directly over ice rescue suit's neoprene hood or helmet. (P27B)
  • "One-Hand Rescue Knife with Lanyard and Case" tethered to ice rescue suits' chest harness. Knife features a sharp stainless steel serrated blade with sheep foot tip blunted for safety. (P21)
  • Day/night signal patch. Displays sound, hand, and light signals on a yellow neoprene placard fastened to suit's right forearm. (i3)
  • 1 set of  Ice Awls with Case are tethered to ice rescue suit's forearms. In the hands of an ice rescue responder, awls offer the essential grip needed to quickly advance across broken unstable ice. (il5)
  • 1 pair Ankle Weights, are lead shot encased weights worn to offset lower suit buoyancy and maintain in-water vertical stability. (i6)
  • 1 pair Swim Fins - Oversized to fit over all ice rescue suit boots. Swim fins increase swimmers speed by 3 times. (P40)
  • 1 pair Rescue Swim Fin Keepers - Fastens to heel strap of swim fins preventing accidental fin loss. Easy to use Hook-and-loop straps wrap around ankles preventing accidental fin loss.
    Keepers are essential because most Ice Rescue Suits feature a size 12 boot. When swimming, the enclosed feet of smaller rescuers move back and forth within the large boots. This excessive foot movement often results in slippage and eventual loss of the Swim Fins' rubber Heal Strap. Accidental Fin loss impacts rescuers attention and response time.
  • 1 pair Anti-Slip Soles (size L or XL) should be worn by anyone required for line tending. Line Tender's need reliable stable traction when pulling on rope. (iSOL)

Preferred by MARSARS due too its' low elongation, extremely buoyant and lightweight properties. When wet, the rope does not absorbed or hold water, nor loose its strength.
  • 1 each  Asymmetric Safety Hook--5730 lb (2604 kg) average strength. Stainless steel construction with tensioned gate connects rescue tether to rescue suits' chest harness. (H2326)
  • 1 each HFLOAT Hard foam "Hook Float" keeps detached tether afloat and ready for

  • 1 each RFD37 The Inflatable CO2 Rescue Tube is an open water Rescue Flotation Device (RFD) with enough buoyancy to keep at least two victims afloat. However, during ice rescue, the RFD could be used to rapidly intervene and stabilize an active drowning victim that cannot reach or hold ice.
  • 1 each RFD44 Spare 33 Gram CO2 bottle. Use it to demonstrate how our inflatable 36" CO2 Grasp Aid inflates in seconds. Or take our word for it, and save the bottle as a spare.
  • 1 each i4 Ice Anchor Screw with Metal Becket doubles as the tether ropes' ice anchor base. Secondly, and more important function is its' use by a single rescuer to conduct single-handed victim(s) extrications.
