At SBS been looking at the new Viking ISO liferafts. They are a great impovement in many ways, self righting, boarding pillows, inflated floor. I can imagine one might survive a stay in one as opposed to those; down to a price, leavit on the foredeck and hope, only required for races ones.
I do have one concern though. The high arches are needed to make them self right. Dont these also make them liable to turn over again. The only thing to stop that would be large very strong pockets - I hope they are.
