Year-after-year increasing number and size of sea-going passenger ships make it necessary to search for novel methods of evacuation of passengers from such large objects or to improve those which have been applied so far. This paper presents a concept of one of the original methods, in which, a.o., chain lifts have been applied to hold up life boats during voyage as well as to launch them in case of evacuation. Technical assumptions and requirements as well as schematic diagram of the hydraulic drive and control system of the lift, is presented.
