The Maritime Safety Wedge was created in 2020 in response to a mariner falling overboard on a locally-owned barge.
As anyone involved in the maritime field knows, the safety of employees is the number one priority. Unfortunately, accidents do happen, and employees fall overboard. Avoiding this life-threatening situation is of the utmost priority. The Maritime Safety Wedge was developed with this in mind. This product is used for protection against the dreaded "man overboard" situation. Prevention is ideal, but no preventative measure is 100% effective. This is why protection devices such as the Maritime Safety Wedge are always needed.
The Maritime Safety Wedge is a safety block that is used to maintain separation in the case of a man overboard situation. The wedge is under 40 pounds, making it easy for one person to carry.
With each purchase of a Maritime Safety Wedge you will receive: one wedge, one 25 ft. emergency throw bag, and The Maritime Safety Wedge hangar bolt with all hardware.
Installation is simple and, with the correct tools, will only take around 5 minutes per wedge. Installation consists of one hole in any easily accessible place to install the hangar.
The Maritime Safety Wedge Version 2 is under strenuous testing and will be available soon. The key differences in Version 1 and 2 are as follows:
