I hadn't serviced the lifejackets for 4yrs and this is what I found!

I now service my own life raft as well,had the old life raft serviced in southhampton and when it ran out of time i took it apart just to find out what was in the canester and found the pressure valve was broken and the pump was missing,would have stayed up for no time at all
