Overboard Technology
When thrown overboard, or worn by a person going overboard, it will float. MOB technology senses 6 seconds of water connection and activates the strobe light, flashing once every second for up to 24 hours, visible up to 3 nautical miles away. Recessed water connection terminals ensure the MOB technology is only active when submerged in water.
OLAS Technology
The OLAS tag is a compact, ‘Smart’, man overboard system. It can be easily attached to adults, children, pets and objects such as overboard floatation devices. The tags connect to the OLAS application on a mobile device.
Within 8 seconds of the man overboard incident occurring, the OLAS mobile application technology detects a break in its ‘virtual tether’ to the Float-On. The mobile phone(s) then sound a loud alarm, alerting crew to the fact someone is overboard. OLAS then aids the crew with the MOB recovery, clearly directing them to the GPS location where the MOB occurred with clear visual signals and bearing data. OLAS stores all location data and time of incident required by the rescue services.
Fitting in the palm of a hand, a feature button offers easy location in the dark. The lens is effective as a distance torch whilst also emitting side light to ensure complete all-round visibility when acting as a position indicating light or strobe. OLAS Float-On can be easily stowed on any existing safety gear or in a lifejacket pocket.
The OLAS Float-On is the first overboard location APP to be combined with an MOB strobe and torch, providing two visual mechanisms to aid recovery. The OLAS screens direct the crew back to the point of MOB and the strobe highlights the location of the casualty in the water.

I spend a bit of time paddling on local rivers (D-Series Kayak), but don't take much in the way of safety equip with me. I'm going to try some sea kayaking in Scotland next year, and think it would be wise to add a beacon or something similar to my kit. It has to be light and compact of course - any suggestions? PatS
