Disclosed is a rescue system for semi-sealed marine vessels, which includes a rescue unit and a backup rescue machine. The rescue unit is installed in a vessel compartment and includes an air bag, a canister containing compressed gas, a needle valve, and a flow control valve for employing the physical property that air has a specific gravity smaller than water, whereby when water leaks into the vessel compartment, through pressing down the needle valve, the compressed air is supplied into the air bag for inflating and expanding the air bag to get floating on the seawater inside the vessel compartment and occupy the internal space of the vessel compartment. The backup rescue machine includes an air compressor and at least a diversion valve to supplement a great amount of high-pressure gas to the vessel compartment for preventing water leaking into the vessel compartment.
