CentiFloat

Facilitating Large-Scale Migrant Rescue at Sea

Deployed as a migrant boat is approached, the Centifloat™ has been designed to mitigate the often-catastrophic consequences of capsize during an uncontrolled abandonment, when the occupants surge towards the side from which they first sight the rescue craft.

Its function is also preventative: seeking to encourage a controlled abandonment of these packed, unstable craft via the presence of large, high-visibility rescue devices in the water onto which persons in distress can cling until they can be shuttled back to the mother rescue vessel on rigid inflatable boats.
