World’s first boat and beach long-range shark deterrents
Announcement posted by 360PR 31 May 2018
Ocean Guardian (which opened applications for an ASX IPO on 10th May) has announced the world’s first innovative long-range shark deterrent products designed specifically for leisure boats, fishing boats and beaches, the LR10, FP15 & LR10S. Powered by Shark Shield Technology, the world’s only scientifically proven and independently tested electrical deterrent, users will have the confidence they need to get in the water anywhere. First available will be the LR10, shipping late 2018 / early 2019 with a target RRP starting at $2,499.
Easy to deploy off the back of any vessel, the new LR10 is based on the proven design of the Ocean Guardian FREEDOM7 dive product and is powered by Shark Shield Technology. The new model provides a large and powerful protective area for swimming of up to 10 meters in depth and over six meters wide through two user-changeable antenna options, depending on the depth of the water.
Lindsay Lyon, Ocean Guardian (formerly Shark Shield) CEO says, “The LR10 is the first of our long-range shark deterrent systems to be launched around the world. Over the next 12 months we will launch further products in the range to give both boat and beach users worldwide the confidence to get in the water. With optional solar power these devices will be very low maintenance”
Amanda Elizabeth, Shark Scientist says, “Thanks to the Shark Shield Technology, swimming off the back of the boat with the family will never feel so good knowing that everyone is protected by tested and effective shark deterrent technology. Plus, our marine life will be safe from drumlines, nets and culling, enabling all to safely enjoy the ocean.”

Ocean Guardian Holdings Limited (ASX: OCG) opened applications for its IPO on May 10th, 2018 to raise a minimum of $5M with funds allocated to developing new products using existing and new technology to expand into the boat and beach markets.

About Ocean Guardian:
In 2018, the Shark Shield company became Ocean Guardian®. The change of name reflects our bigger ambition – to make you safe whatever you enjoy doing in the Ocean – while also protecting the planet we call home.
Ocean Guardian, powered by Shark Shield Technology, is the world’s only scientifically proven and independently tested electrical shark deterrent. Government approved and developed over two decades of research, Ocean Guardian’s patented technology creates a powerful three-dimensional electrical field which causes safe but unbearable spasms in shark’s short-range electrical receptors, turning sharks away - including Great Whites. Nothing is more effective.
Ocean Guardian safety products are the ultimate ocean guardian – providing peace of mind for surfers, divers, and ocean lovers around the world, while supporting the conservation of marine life by removing the need for shark nets and culling.
