In this episode of "Your Drone Questions Answered," host Chris Breedlove interviews Shawn Barry from Oak Island about how drones are transforming ocean rescue operations. As Oak Island's full-time drone operator for public safety, Shawn shares groundbreaking insights on:

  • How drones deploy personal flotation devices (PFDs) to distressed swimmers in HALF the time of traditional rescue methods
  • Real-world success stories, including 17 ocean rescues and 7 PFD deployments in 2024 alone
  • The innovative use of drones to locate missing persons, assist with emergency medical supplies, and provide critical situational awareness
  • How Oak Island's unique geography and leadership have positioned them as pioneers in drone rescue technology

Shawn explains how their M30T drone platform with specialized attachments has revolutionized their ability to respond to emergencies, from dropping auto-inflating PFDs to distressed swimmers to delivering AEDs to cardiac incidents on crowded beaches. Learn about their innovative rip current warning system and how community education has reduced rescue incidents.
