Craft-Boat Conversion
About Craft-Boat Conversion
Welcome to the new generation of the CheckRescue, which can convert into a rescue craft / boat.
CheckRescue is a rigid inflatable walkway suitable for ice and mud rescue as well as providing emergency flotation for use in shallow water. It is now available with an option to convert into a Rescues craft / boat, to increase efficiency and versatility.
A drop-stitch elastomeric coated material is used which, when inflated to the working pressure, becomes rigid. The unit is compact when deflated and can be easily carried.
Checkmate Flexible Engineering (CFE) has developed a method of sealing the edges which is robust and achievable at a low cost, making CheckRescue longer lasting, more reliable and better value. In addition, during 2018 a new non-slip surface has been developed, making the unit very user-friendly.
