Limpet - throwline for the sea

 

- Designed specifically for sea kayak rescue
- Throw from a kayak to enable a reach rescue
- 14 metre floating braided 6mm line

 

The Whetman Equipment WATER BELT can combine to offer a quick release waist belt:

  • An original design by Whetman Equipment
  • Compact light bag makes throwing from a kayak easy
  • Flared top makes repacking simple
  • Captured loops at each end ready to connect
  • Internal sliding float.
  • Effective as a drogue
  • Belt loop to fit the Water Belt
  • ​200 daN max working load

 

To throw:

  1. Practice throwing into narrow gullies.
  2. First make sure the line end is connected to a quick release element on your kayak or Water Belt.
  3. Undo the velcro tab
  4. Hold the bag in your throwing hand and hold the paddle in your other hand as a counter balance. 
  5. Throw overarm and with practice the full 14 metre length will extend.

 

The bag shape is designed to be open to allow easy exit of the rope in deployment. The shape is like a cone offering a wide mouth for very easy repacking.
There are no elements on these bags that can corrode. These lines are suitable for marine applications such as coasteering and sea kayaking.
