- Manifolds
- Templates
- Other significant obstructions, including valves, piles, anchors and major debris

New version of FishSAFE unit
The much enhanced latest version of the FishSAFE unit are now available. This version includes substantial improvements to provide fishermen with the benefit of a state of the art aid to safety.
