From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Search and Rescue Transponder (SART) is a self-contained, waterproof radar transponder intended for emergency use at sea. The radar-SART is used to locate a survival craft or distressed vessel by creating a series of dots on a rescuing ship's radar display. According to the GMDSS (Global Maritime Distress and Safety System) Manual produced by IMO (International Maritime Organization), “SARTs are the main means in the GMDSS for locating ships in distress or their survival craft…” There must be at least one SART on GMDSS compliant vessels up to 500 tons and vessels exceeding 500 tons must carry two.
