River & Flood Rescue

Operating in a flood environment can be extremely dangerous, especially when you are entering strange, swift water environments. Fast water flow, hidden drifts, reefs, weeds, all can be hazardous or even lethal to rescue operators. Experience and expertise are helpful, strings connecting team members can avoid hazards, and there are special courses on river and flood rescues, yet the best way to reduce risks is always to let water rescue devices do the job in the first place rather than your own.
