The MIS system is a twin track inflatable slide system available for freeboard heights up to 12.5 meters It deploys at a right angle to the vessel and the slide is packed together with either a 100/150 person liferaft or two 100/151 person IBAs. This allows the liferaft/IBA to be
available immediately for boarding after it is deployed and bowsed. Additional liferafts/IBAs are available to be bowsed to the primary system, depending on vessel capacity required.
