In 1947,
Fiorentino Marine
Sales began outfitting 80-foot commercialfishing fleets with modified parachuteanchors and commercial
fishing equipment. Today, Fiorentino
Para-Anchor is a major
parachuteanchor supplier for
the U.S.
Coast Guard, super seiners,
and
mega yachts.
Sample
Projects:
Fiorentino's patented PARA-RING Anchor was selected
as part of the Orion spacecraft recovery system
after passing extensive NASA tests.
Excerpt from official
NASA test report:
"During the course of testing,
it was repeatedly proven that the sea anchor was
necessary for the success of the recovery. First by
deploying the sea anchor, the capsule drift speed
was seen to be reduced by one half. Second, the
capsule tendency to continually yaw was greatly
reduced. This stabilization proved to be helpful to
the recovery forces when deploying the floatation
collar."
