Should you get in a situation where you need to abandon ship, your liferaft will be one of the most important pieces of safety equipment you’ll need on board.

​

To ensure your liferaft operates in a good working order, annual servicing is recommended, which will increase the life expectancy of your raft.

​

We can service a range of liferafts up to 14 man, you can even come in and we'll show you what's inside so you can familiarise yourself should you ever need to use it. 

Lots of people believe that liftrafts automatically open after hitting the water, this simply isn't true. You will need to manually open it by pulling the cord attached.
