Safety Boat
Specialists
Sentry Boats ‘safety boats’ have been operational in and around coastal waters, rivers, canals, lakes and reservoirs for over 25 years - we know safety on the water!
Our main focus is looking after the safety of workers while they are at risk of fall into water.
Often we describe ourselves as the RNLI of Britain’s workforce. Working around water brings your business into contact with uniquely hostile and
unpredictable environments.
If you have projects on, in, over, under or near water, you’ll need the support of a Safety Boat.
At Sentry Boats, water is our business.
Our crews have decades of experience in boat handling and lifesaving and are hand-picked
from the port, maritime and marine leisure industries.
We operate a fleet of vessels ranging from rapid response "safety boats" to survey craft and
working platforms.
And, for more than 25 years, we've provided support and guidance to multinational businesses,
the construction industry, government agencies and the media.
From advice on risk mitigation to 24/7 safety boat or workboat cover, we’re here to watch over your
projects from the water.
We specialise in... safety boat and rescue services, hydrographic survey vessels, media and filming platforms, workboats, water sampling and environmental protection.
Sentry Boats in Action
"A crew from Sentry Boats, which had been contracted by Highways England to be stationed under the Blaydon Bridge during A1 roadworks, noticed that emergency services were on the scene.
"Two of the safety and rescue boats then went over to nearby Scotswood Bridge and were on hand in case the woman fell into the water."
