Liferafts

While second to none for reliability and durability, the throw-overboard and Davit launchable liferafts we sell are available in a standard version and an automatically self-righting version. This ensures that no matter how the liferaft inflates deploys on the water it will always right itself ready for boarding. VIKING liferafts are subjected to rough sea trials and can be deployed at very high wind velocities and extremely low temperatures. For use in Polar climates, we can offer a dedicated liferaft solution in a unique heated container.
