Yachting NZ Lifebuoy Drogue – Man Overboard Safety Compliant
The Yachting Lifebuoy Drogue is a critical man-overboard safety accessory designed to slow drift and stabilise a deployed lifebuoy, helping keep a person in the water closer to the point of entry. By acting as a compact sea anchor, the drogue reduces wind drift and improves visibility and recovery accuracy during an emergency.
Recommended for compliant Yachting safety setups, this drogue is an essential addition to lifebuoy man-overboard systems on yachts and offshore vessels. Key Features
Reduces Lifebuoy Drift – Acts as a sea anchor to slow movement
Improves Recovery Accuracy – Keeps casualty closer to MOB location
Yachting Recommended Equipment – Suitable for compliant safety setups
High-Visibility Safety Colouring – Easy to identify in the water
Compact & Lightweight Design – Stores easily with lifebuoy system
Durable Marine Construction – Built for harsh offshore conditions
Simple Attachment – Connects quickly to lifebuoy lines Why Every Yacht Should Use a Lifebuoy Drogue
During a man-overboard incident, wind and waves can quickly push a lifebuoy away from the casualty. A drogue dramatically reduces drift, improving both visibility and the chances of a fast, successful recovery.
Ideal for:
Yachts & keelboats
Offshore & coastal sailing
Yachting compliant safety setups
Racing and cruising vessels
Boats carrying full MOB recovery systems
