Maritime Search and Rescue (SAR)

Maritime Search and Rescue (SAR) involves coordinated efforts to locate and assist people in distress at sea. When a maritime emergency occurs—such as a vessel sinking, crew overboard, or someone stranded—around-the-clock teams with ships, helicopters, and advanced technology act swiftly to find and rescue those in danger. SAR operations are vital for safety, utilizing international cooperation, communication systems, and specialized skills to ensure timely help and save lives in maritime environments.
