Davit System (Lifeboat/Raft) · Lifesaving Appliances (LSA)
The Norsafe Freefall GES 50-32 MK III is a davit system designed to launch a 50‑person free‑fall lifeboat rapidly and safely from vessels with high freeboard. As a Raft), it is normally installed at an assigned embarkation and launching station with its approved davit, release gear or free-fall arrangement. In that role, its primary purpose is to provide evacuation or rescue capability during abandonment and emergency response. Totally enclosed, free-fall and rescue-boat designs differ in launching arrangement and operating role, while exact capacity, speed and release details remain those in the approved documentation. Capacity: 50 persons. For exact ratings, dimensions, settings, capacities, materials and variant-specific limits, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.
