Specially designed for rescue operations on ice and adapted for year round rescue missions. Our rescue craft offers all of the features and advantages required by public and maritime security services for fast and safe wintertime rescue operations. Based on the same construction as an ice canoe, and designed by a family that has sailed the St. Lawrence River for generations, our rescue craft has been tested in extreme conditions and is approved by Transport Canada. The UMA 17 does exactly what it was designed to do - save lives. These sturdy crafts can navigate safely through ice and along rocky shores; making them perfect for many years of service. Light and easy to manoeuvre, the UMA 17's versatility allows it to be navigated on open water and ice. Options are available to customize your UMA 17 in order to meet your needs and varying climatic conditions. We also offer a range of emergency products for all of your rescue mission requirements.
