Completed Lifebuoy SystemInnovation for Boating Safety
Principle: CLS was developed as „on board” and „on ground” equipment as well.
As „on board” safety equipment, it was developed for recreational boats that operates on sheltered and coastal waters, however advantages of CLS can be revealed on open waters and on commercial boats as well.
As „on ground” equipment, use of CLS strongly offered at poolside, beaches and harbors.
Theory 1: Recreational boating on sheltered waters
This theory says that a recreational boat on sheltered or coastal waters generally has only one trained person on the board. He/she is the skipper. Others are just incompetent guests (family, friends, workmates), not trained crews. An emergency case (e.g. MOB) needs coordinated work of 2-3 people at least. This means that skipper needs to involve untrained outsiders into the rescue process. This can delay or stall the rescue. That’s why rescue equipment has to be improved in order to enable untrained people to provide useful aid even in stressful situations.
Rescue from the shore
Rescue from the shore (on ports, beaches, swimming pools) also can be taken place by untrained people. They should also use equipment that easy to use even without routine.
Theory 2:
Conventional equipment
Ring buoy
Horseshoe buoy
Buoyant cushion
Throwline
Parts:Parts:
• Practice needs to use• Preparation needs to use• Slow operational process• Slow repeated throws
Drawbacks: • Difficult to grab, no comfortable grip• Short throwing distance• Low throwing accuracy• Difficult to occupy safe position for
the victim
Main parts:Plastic handle with rope holder and V-cleats
Floating rescue line with carabiners
Load transfer sling with sling eye, sewn handle, plastic insert, holder pockets and Velcro
Any type of throwable rescue device (type IV PFD)
What is CLS?
together in one system
Definition: Completed Lifebuoy System is a system of safety equipment, in which the components work in synergy in order to eliminate drawbacks of conventional safety equipment. The system can be operated fast and easily that makes it adequate for untrained people as well.
Parts:
V-cleat
Line deflector
Center bore
• Ergonomic shaped• Plastic injected• Material: Polyethylene• Floating in water• Vivid colors
Rope holders
Ergonomic gripFeatures:
Plastic Handle
Parts:
• 15m length, dia. 7mm• Hollow braided floating line• Material: Polyethylene• Bright colored
Features:
Throw Line
Carabiner
Floating foamFloating line
• Alu carabiners• PE foam makes carabiners
floating
Set-up:
• Can be used as independent rescue device• The line can be coiled easily (in figure 8 shape)• Tangle-proof store of the throwline• The handle can be easily thrown to the victim
Advantages:
Plastic handle + Throw line = Rescue Line Set
Plastic handle
Floating line
• Throwline always can run freely• Easy to spot the floating handle• Easy to grab the floating handle• Safety line can be attach easily with
carabiner
Types:
Throwable device (type IV PFD)
Ring buoy Horseshoe buoy Buoyant cushion
• Difficult to grab, no comfortable grip• Short throwing distance• Low throwing accuracy• Difficult to occupy safe position for the victim
Drawbacks:
We do not plan to manufacture it. If necessary, we obtain from the market the type that meets the requirements of the respective country.
Load Transfer Sling
Parts:
• Strong fabric material• Reinforced with straps• UV and weather resistant Velcro• Plastic insert in hidden pocket (only for horseshoe buoy)
Features:
Applicating Velcro
Sling eye
Sewn handle
Handle holder pockets
Handle fixing Velcro
Plastic insert (only at horseshoe)
Throwable device + Load transfer sling = Floating unit
Set-up:
Advantages: • Load Transfer Sling is easy to apply to throwable device• Sling eye gives an obvious attaching point to the rescue line• Due to the sewn handle, it is much easier to grab and throw the PFD• Increased throwing distance and aiming accuracy• Changed direction of use makes PFD safer to use (only at horseshoe)
Rescue line set + Floating unit = CLS
Ring buoy Horseshoe buoy Buoyant cushion
• PFD and rescue line always stored together• No need preparation, CLS always ready to use• Quick repeated throws (in case of failed throw)• Lower stress level of rescuer person
Advantages:

Inshore Safety Ltd.
Company: The Inshore Safety Ltd. was created in 2019 with the aim of creating a new water safety product group especially for the crews of pleasure crafts that operates on coastal or inland waters. We break up with the generally accepted idea that boating in sheltered waters is much less dangerous than in open waters. We say, that is not less dangerous, it is differently dangerous. Other threats and challenges can come up on sheltered waters and we want to answer all these challenges with our products. The base of the product group is a set of patented inventions that come from Laszlo Mucsi, who is the founder of Inshore Safety. The first element of the group is the CLS, which we plan to sell worldwide through an international distributor network.
