We are a group of people that believe that tools for safety and rescue should be designed for quick, safe and effective use by a wide segment of the population. Up until now tools and procedures have been designed for use by adult males with specialized training. The Personal Retriever can be used by males and females from age 6 to 85 much more effectively than ropes or buoys.
My favorite quote is by Jim Segersteom of Special Rescue, "Heroism is a byproduct of inadequate leadership, training and equipment.
