Abstract: The present invention comprises a new holster and bag system for use in water rescue situations. The flexible holster is capable of securing to various different watercraft in various ways while holding the corresponding rescue rope bag in place via a shock cord placed within the groove of the circular holster. The end of the rope should also be held in place by a quick release system capable of holding the rope unless released by the rescuer. The holster may be made differently or secured differently to fit different craft. The bag may also be designed differently to hold different amounts or sizes of rope for different applications.
