Federal Requirements and Safety Tips for Recreational Boats

Inflatable Life Rafts

An inflatable life raft can provide a survival platform for an extended period of time. Make sure the life raft is large enough for everyone on board when the boat operates offshore. It should have the appropriate emergency equipment pack, and should be professionally serviced periodically, according to the manufacturer's instructions. Coast Guard approved life rafts must meet a number of stringent material and performance standards.
