Recommendations for buying a Viking liferaft

[Oscarpop]

Hello,

We have kind of decided on getting a Viking Offshore liferaft for our coming trip.


Can anyone recommend good suppliers in the UK.

I called Pirates Cave but wanted to compare their rates against some others.

I get mine serviced here:

VIKING LIFE-SAVING EQUIPMENT Ltd. Southampton
Hamble Court, Hamble Lane
SO31 4QL Southampton, Hampshire
Great Britain
Tel: +44 (0) 2380 454184
Fax: +44 (0) 2380 454284
e-mail: vikingsth@viking-life.com

I've always had good service from them, they also sell new ones as well, might be worth a call?

Yes, call Viking in Hamble. Speak to Amanda Lowe (very helpful).

We have a Viking Offshore Liferaft.
I can confirm that it deployed in full text book style when the clients decided to accidently drop it off the stern whilst sailing along.
I was also surprised at how cheap it was to hire one from Viking should I have needed to whilst ours was being serviced.
I don't know what trip you are planning but if the liferaft is only for this trip I would consider hiring one.
