The
US SAILING
ARTHUR
B. HANSON RESCUE
MEDAL
is an award given to skippers of pleasure
boats or race
support vessels who effect rescues of victims from the water. The award is made for
rescues in U.S. waters, or those which occur in races originating or terminating in a U.S.
port. The purposes of the award are to recognize the significant accomplishment in
seamanship which has saved a life, and to collect further case studies in rescues for
analysis for the US SAILING Safety-at-Sea Committee which
will eventually be incorporated into the extensive educational programs of
US SAILING.
