An anchor rescue system includes an improved slider assembly 200 and retriever assembly 300 allowing for secure attachment as the retriever assembly is lowered upon an anchor line to attach to the slider assembly. Once attached, the retriever assembly pulls upon the slider assembly with the slider assembly attached to a tether chain 210 with the tether chain attached to a lower portion of the anchor, such as crown, causing the anchor to move upwardly in a relative horizontal position. The system frees trapped anchors without need for floatation devices.

The present invention provides a capturing mechanism for the recovery of at least one vessel to at least one marine platform; said at least one vessel having at least one engagement device either permanently or at least partially reversibly connectable to the same; said capturing mechanism comprising: a. at least one tensioned capturing line connected to said at least one marine platform; and b, at least one line maneuvering mechanism configured to displace said at least one tensioned capturing line in at least one direction selected from a group consisting of up, down, left, right, forward, backward, playable into said at least one marine plat form, playable out of said at least one marine platform, playable into and out of the water and any combination thereof.

A catamaran lifting apparatus is disclosed for lifting objects in a marine environment. The apparatus includes first and second vessels that are spaced apart during use. A first frame spans between the vessels. A second frame spans between the vessels. The frames are spaced apart and connected to the vessels in a configuration that spaces the vessels apart. The first frame connects to the first vessel with a universal joint and to the second vessel with a hinged connection. The second frame connects to the second vessel with a universal joint and to the first vessel with a hinged or pinned connection. Each of the frames extends upwardly in an inverted u-shape, providing a space under the frame and in between the barges that enables a marine vessel to be positioned in between the barges and under the frames.
