Providing fast and effective assistance at sea

Fast Rescue Boat

During the Fast Rescue Boat (FRB) training, participants learn how to safely locate, approach, and evacuate casualties and colleagues using a high-speed rescue craft. The training combines practical boat handling with rescue techniques under a variety of weather and sea conditions.

What makes this training unique is the combination of speed, maneuverability, and safety. Participants experience what it’s like to operate under pressure with an FRB, where both navigation and teamwork play a crucial role.

Who is it for?

This training is designed for offshore and maritime personnel responsible for carrying out rescue operations at sea — such as crew members on ships and platforms who must be able to launch, operate, and deploy an FRB during emergencies.

What You’ll Practice

Under the guidance of experienced instructors, you’ll go through every stage of operating a Fast Rescue Boat (FRB). You’ll learn to:

• Prepare and launch the FRB

• Steer and maneuver at high speed and in rough sea conditions

• Search for, locate, and approach casualties or vessels

• Perform rescue techniques and safely recover survivors on board

• Work together, communicate, and demonstrate leadership during rescue operations

• Retrieve and secure the FRB safely after deployment

All exercises are carried out under strict safety protocols, with thorough briefings and debriefings. This approach helps you build confidence in the effective use of the FRB during real emergency situations.
