Lifeboat Release Mechanism

A Lifeboat Release Mechanism is a safety device that allows a lifeboat to be quickly and safely detached from a ship in an emergency. It typically involves a system of hooks, latches, or hydraulic/electric actuators that hold the lifeboat in place during normal operations. When activated, the mechanism releases these locks, enabling the crew to lower or abandon the vessel efficiently. The design ensures secure attachment during transit and controlled release in emergency situations, minimizing risk during evacuation and ensuring the safety of passengers and crew.
