This liferaft by Seago has been designed and constructed to meet the ISO 9650 standard and is designed for extended offshore cruising and racing. It incorporates a butyl rubber hull (not PVC) and a rip stop Nylon canopy (not PVC), both materials make this raft extremely rugged. A 12 year manufacturers guarantee is offered subject to service intervals. The standard is a comprehensive technical specification specifying all the materials used in the construction of the raft. It also spells out a full performance specification covering inflation, launching, material resistance, buoyancy and interior space.
Particular emphasis is placed on the following: -
Stability: This is provided by 4 weighted water pockets with a minimum capacity of 220 litres which guarantee complete security even in uneven loading conditions. The Seago rafts have 222.6 litre capacity for rafts up to 10 man and 278.8 litres for 12 man.
Boarding: The specification lays down that any person wearing foul weather gear and an inflated lifejacket must be able to board the life raft alone. In order to meet this requirement we have added a self inflating boarding ramp with an internal ladder to allow the person to haul themselves on board the raft. In the event of the liferaft inflating upside down there is a righting strop on the underside of the raft.
Visibility: The raft is fitted with a high visibility orange canopy with SOLAS approved retro reflective tape and an internal light and a SOLAS approved external light. The Seago ISO range of rafts are designed to inflate at temperatures between -15C to +65C with an emergency kit suitable for 24 hour occupancy. ISO rafts also include a built in insulated floor.
