Fox
40 Whistle
Fox
40 pealess whistles never fail. The flawless
performance has made their whistle the preferred
choice for personal safety. Relied upon by: NATO
Forces, U.S. Coast Guard, U.S. Army, Royal Life Saving
Society of Canada, and the American Red Cross. The Fox
40 is the loudest rescue whistle available. Specified
by the DOD, and found in U.S. military survival kits.
The signal easily attains 115 decibels and is produced
by 3 tuned air chambers that create slightly different
frequencies. This causes a complex sound phenomenon
called a "beat" or "trill", giving
the human listener more auditory cue to perceive and
locate the source of the whistle in a rescue
situation. The pealess air chambers clear instantly of
water or saliva when blown, so it can be used even
when submerged. We recommend earplugs when testing.
This is the same recognizable whistle used by sports
referees worldwide.

boater. It comes with their Watercraft Bailer, Marine
Flashlight, Pealess Safety Whistle, Water Safety Rope
and Float, a premium 4-in-1 package that offers

Watercraft Bailer
This
bailer fits neatly in the bottom of any boat thanks to
its elliptical shape and pliable polyethylene
construction. Integrated non-snag handle fits just
about any hand size and is comfortable to use. The
extra large two-liter capacity makes bailing quick and
efficient. The bailer partnered with the removable
lid, provides storage for the other safety equipment
included in the kit. There is a mirror decal on the
inside of the lid that can be used as a signaling
device in the event of an emergency during the
daytime.
Marine
Flashlight
This
compact, go-anywhere flashlight has the features
boaters need. It features a high-intensity Krypton
bulb and a cushioned, shock-resistant casing with
non-slip grip. The bright yellow color makes the
flashlight easy to spot even in the water and yes it
floats.
Water
Safety Rope and Float
This
is the rope/float combination to have "on
duty" during any water sport, at the beach or
during any pool activity. This premium quality
floating rope is made from extra-fine polypropylene
filaments woven into a high-density braid. It's much
softer and easier to handle than conventional
coarsely-braided rope. Fox40 strength is premium —
lab-tested to 900 lbs. breaking strength. 50 ft. (15
m)
Watercraft
Safety Throw
Great
for the poolside or in any boat and should be used
anywhere the potential for water rescue exists. The
Fox40 Water Safety Throw is a superior alternative to
fabric throw-bags, heaving lines and ring buoys. The
blow-molded construction features an integrated
handle, more visible and easier to grasp than the
standard heaving line, especially in emergency
situations. Quick-release plug prevents the rope from
deploying inadvertently. The 50 ft. (15 m) length of
premium-quality polypropylene braided floating rope
has 900 lbs. breaking strength.
