RapidDitch Express Bag — ACR Survival Bag, Waterproof and Buoyant

Designed for emergency situations at sea, the ACR RapidDitch Express Bag is a waterproof and buoyant survival bag intended to keep essential safety equipment organized and accessible. Its compact dimensions of 533 x 152 x 368 mm make it a "grab-and-go" solution for quick equipment transfers between boats or in case of abandoning ship.

Design and Materials

This bag is made with a 600-denier polyester exterior and reflective fabric, complemented by a 210-denier polyester interior. Its high-visibility "ACRtreuse" yellow color, combined with reflective materials, enhances detectability by search and rescue teams. Self-repairing and corrosion-resistant zippers are integrated for durability in marine environments.

Key Survival Features

The RapidDitch Express Bag features a buoyant design thanks to closed-cell foam, allowing it to float with up to 6.8 kg of equipment in fresh water. Its internal volume is 30 litres. For equipment organization, it includes multiple compartments, straps, and loops, including an external pocket dedicated to an EPIRB beacon, mesh compartments, three enclosed side pockets, two "daisy chain" organizers, and twelve attachment points. An innovative system converts the shoulder straps into two 1.2-metre safety harnesses to keep crew members tethered in the water. An external, waterproof inventory card enables quick content verification.
