Description
Aware that immersion suits are required on board most fishing vessels, many fishermen buy the suits without making sure they fit, and pay little attention to how they can use them to save a life. When Seconds Count tells what features to look for when purchasing an immersion suit, how to put one on, how to use it, and how to take care of it. The audience for the video is all mariners, and features fishermen, sailboaters, children, and tugboat operators. Filmed in Alaska, the video is useful worldwide. Before you pay $250–$500 for your immersion suit—take a look at this video. Produced by the Alaska Marine Safety Education Association and Alaska Sea Grant Marine Advisory Program.
