We have increased our capabilities through:
- Responders Certified as Marine Rescue Technicians
- Augmented night vision system
- EPIRB
- Emergency automatic life raft system
- Modification of boat interior to allow for two patients to be transported simultaneously
- Enhanced patient care lighting and storage
- Patient and crew safety equipment
