provide rapid, safe, and efficient dry evacuation for high passenger and crew capacities directly from vessel decks into liferafts via vertical chutes or inclined slides. Engineered to replace heavy traditional davits, VIKING MES solutions dramatically reduce vessel launch times, free up valuable deck footprint, and ensure smooth emergency procedures even under severe sea states and extreme weather conditions.
Capable of evacuating up to 700+ passengers in under 30 minutes using multi-chute or dual-slide deployment stations.
Features telescoping or elastic vertical chutes with internal speed-retardation cells, protecting passengers from water exposure, friction burns, and free fall.
Push-button or manual gravity release systems requiring minimal crew intervention to deploy the chute/slide and inflate attached liferafts simultaneously.
Compact aluminum or composite containers free up up to 60% of deck space compared to conventional lifeboat davit arrangements.
