A projectile launcher assembly includes a housing mounted to the deck of a maritime vessel. The housing has a plurality of launching wells each extending into the housing. A plurality of projectiles is positioned within a respective one of the launching wells. A launching unit is positioned in the housing to launch each of the projectiles outwardly from the respective launching wells thereby facilitating the plurality of projectiles to be dispersed into a body of water in which the maritime vessel is traveling. A plurality of buoyancy vests is each positioned within a respective one of the projectiles. Each of the buoyancy vests is inflatable when the projectiles are launched from the housing to facilitate the individual that has fallen overboard to wear one of the buoyancy vests to inhibit the individual from drowning.
