Onboard safety: real preparation for critical moments
Safety at sea depends not only on the equipment but also on its proper maintenance, installation, and knowledge of use. In an emergency, only systems that have been properly inspected and certified will work.
At Dahlberg S.A., we have been ensuring for over 50 years that GMDSS communication and distress electronic equipment responds when truly needed, supporting shipowners, captains, and professionals with reliable and authorized technical service.
Key points for safe navigation
1. Prior review: the foundation of everything
Before each departure, it is essential to check the condition of the safety equipment.
A poorly maintained system is a system that can fail.
👉 At Dahlberg, we ensure that GMDSS equipment is correctly installed, operational, and compliant with current regulations.
2. Distress equipment: that it works when it matters
Devices such as EPIRB, AIS-SART, or DSC systems are fundamental for issuing alerts and facilitating rescue.
👉 As an authorized company (category M1), we perform installation, maintenance, and certification, guaranteeing its real reliability in an emergency.
3. Life jackets: always ready
They must be accessible, in good condition, and suitable for each crew member. Their use makes a difference in case of abandonment or falling overboard.
4. Liferaft: correct maneuver
For the correct use of the liferaft, it is essential to remove it from its support and secure it properly before launching it into the water, always to leeward to prevent it from drifting away from the vessel. Once in the water, the inflation mechanism is activated, and access to the raft is made with caution, subsequently cutting the painter.
👉 Its correct functioning depends on periodic inspections carried out by authorized companies.
5. Emergency management
Staying calm, coordinating the crew, and making efficient use of available resources is key until the rescue arrives.
