The Pelican story begins in 1976 when scuba enthusiast Dave Parker created an innovative tool out or one hundred feet of twine, a hockey stick handle, and a metal weight to serve as a mini anchor. He designed this tool to bob on the water's surface to mark locations for divers with the potential to save lives. Dave's next design was a rugged, durable case first aid kit for divers. From a humble beginning sprang a company that became the global leader in the design and manufacture of high-performance protective cases, temperature-controlled packaging, and portable lighting systems.
