Signals and Light Buoys

Signals and light buoys are essential devices for ensuring safety at sea, facilitating the location of people or objects in the water, especially in conditions of poor visibility or during nighttime hours.

Types of Light Bulbs:

  • Lifebuoy Light Buoys : Designed to attach to lifebuoys, these lights activate automatically upon contact with water or when capsized, emitting a bright light that makes it easier to locate the survivor. For example, the Starled floating light buoy is available from Nautica Basile.

  • Signaling Light Buoys : Used to indicate the presence of obstacles, fishing nets, or other objects at sea, these buoys emit a 360° visible light to warn surrounding vessels. Osculati offers a variety of light buoys for different nautical applications.

Emergency Light Signals:

In addition to light buoys, there are other light signals used in emergency situations:

  • Signal Flares : Pyrotechnic devices that, when launched, emit an intense light visible over a long distance, signaling an emergency situation. MTO Nautica Store offers flare and distress signal kits compliant with current regulations.

  • Hand Flares : Portable devices that emit a bright light for a prolonged period, used to signal one's position to nearby vessels.

Related Accessories:

  • Lifebuoy Holders : Allow you to secure lifebuoys in strategic positions on board, ensuring quick access in an emergency.

  • Floating Lines : Ropes designed to stay afloat, facilitating the recovery of people at sea. MagellanoStore offers a selection of floating lines and other life jacket accessories.

It is essential that all light signaling devices on board comply with international and national maritime regulations, and that they are regularly inspected and maintained in optimal operating condition.

Make sure you choose devices and accessories that are compatible with your specific needs and comply with current safety regulations.
