Ocean Safety, a leading provider of marine safety equipment, is excited to announce its participation at METSTRADE 2024, the world's largest international exhibition for the leisure marine industry, where the company will showcase its extensive range of innovative safety products.

Taking place from 19th to 21st November 2024, this year's METSTRADE exhibit by Ocean Safety will include a comprehensive collection of lifejackets, liferafts and Man Overboard (MOB) retrieval gear, featuring its popular Jon Buoy range.

Ocean Safety is also pleased to announce the launch of its Jon Buoy Recovery Module MK6 Valise, a revolutionary addition to its popular MOB Jon Buoy lineup, marking its first appearance in this market.

The Jon Buoy Recovery Module MK6 Valise is a full man overboard solution designed for versatility and ease of use. This new valise version replaces the previous 'Bulkhead Mounted' version and allows the module to be fitted to vessels where over-water fitting options are limited, making it an ideal choice for cruising yachts, motor boats and other marine vessels, including small commercial vessels.

Additionally, the Jon Buoy can now be mounted on the bridge wing of larger vessels for straightforward deployment. With a new bulkhead mounting solution, the latest iteration of the Jon Buoy is manually deployable for efficient MOB recovery.

"We are thrilled to introduce the new bulkhead valise variant to the market at METSTRADE 2024," says Alistair Hackett, Managing Director at Ocean Safety. "This product is the culmination of our ongoing commitment to safety innovation, providing a highly effective MOB recovery solution that meets the needs of a wide range of vessels."

The Jon Buoy Recovery Module MK6 Valise features several key advancements, including intuitive boarding assistance, a tailored buoyancy design, an integrated water stability system and a lifting harness. Designed with aesthetics and functionality in mind, the slimline valise is available in both orange and white.

Hackett adds: "Safety at sea is our top priority, and the Jon Buoy Recovery Module MK6 Valise reflects that mission. Its ability to be deployed quickly and effectively in critical situations could make all the difference in an MOB scenario, particularly when dealing with a hypothermic casualty. We're confident that this product will be a game-changer for commercial and leisure mariners alike."

In addition to the Jon Buoy Recovery Module MK6 Valise, Ocean Safety will present the latest safety products from its trusted suppliers, including Aquaspec, Ocean Signal, Hammar and Ikaros.
