Abandoning to the Life Raft Abandoning to the Life Raft
Only use the life raft if there is no hope of saving the boat. If possible, stay with the boat.
Life rafts are supplied in a canister or valise. Ideally, all rafts are stored on deck, although some may be found in a locker. If stored in a locker, ensure it is always free and accessible within a dedicated locker.
