  1. Life saving reel

    Context date October 2009 Unreferenced date March 2007 The surf life saving reel was beach life saving apparatus from Australia . The reel was originally invented at Bondi Beach by Lyster Ormsby and then was later that year redesigned by G H Olding. It was a giant reel with rope wrapped around it with a harness at the end. The reel rested in a frame that would rest on the sand. The life saver would attach the harness to his or her self then Human swimming swim out to the struggling bather surfer. Once they reached the patient they would attach the patient to the harness and another life saver on the beach would reel them in. The life saver in the water would tend to another patient or swim alongside the patient to reassure them if they were conscious or make sure that nothing went wrong if they were unconscious. The actual reel and rope would weigh about 50 60 pounds and was officially made part of the surf lifesaving community on Sunday 24 March 1906. The reel then was used in the British Isles shortly after being invented. One of the last places to accept the reel was Cairns in 1925. The reel was used up to 1993 where it was replaced by IRBs Inflatable boat Inflatable rescue Boats . The first person to be rescued using the reel was the famous aviator Charles Kingsford Smith .
