Yachting Deluxe Life Raft
Givens' most popular liferaft for the discerning yachtsman is built with the same quality and construction as our Coast Guard raft. Record: over 450 lives saved. There is no other raft that compares with its quick inflation, (inflates in approximately 11-13 seconds) extreme stability (self-stabilizing ballast), easy boarding and sound structure. It has been the liferaft of choice by thousands of private yachtsmen. Available in 4, 6, 8, 10, & 12 person sizes.
Unique Features include:
- Self-righting ballast
- Double insulated canopy - to assist in guarding against hypothermia and for extra protection. The blue inner canopy is statistically proven to be better than other colors in reducing nausea/seasickness.
- Double door
- Double closure - Velcro & ties (compared to zippers on competitors' rafts prone to breaking or jamming)
- Double tube
- Double insulated floor
- Cruciform style arches - allow for sturdy overhead protection, more headroom and also are made so that they can collapse for ease of boarding or if occupants want to sit on top of raft for fresh air.

Bracket
If you opt to purchase our canister style raft, a housing mechanism is needed. Givens offers a tubular style stainless steel bracket.
