WRS Mega Sled
Mega Sled
The WRS Mega Sled is designed for rescuing flood victims, with its high volume tubes this sled has excellent stability. The open stern allows easy pick up of casualties. The Mega Sled is wide enough to accommodate a stretcher and the rescuer, once the casualty is situated within the sled the transom can be raised to prevent excess water entering.
With climate change on the rise and more communities getting flooded the WRS Mega Sled is the perfect piece of equipment for rescue teams.
