Ladies and gentlemen, bravo to "Waypoint" who just returned our life raft after a three year service, all done and returned in a little over a week. For those of you who are interested, a key part of the service is to replace the items which go out of date - such as the pyrotechnics.
The internal light was replaced as part of the service, as it was going out of date. One rarely gets the opportunity to see this type of thing outside of a crises situation, so perhaps never. and is shown below for information:
We did extensive research before choosing the Waypoint raft, and in the end the choice was based on the the combination of confidence in the design, confidence in manufacturing quality control and someone working the boat show stand who new the detial of the product quite thoroughly, but it's by no means the cheapest. That's obviously not to say that other liferafts are not any good, but that this is the one we chose to bet on, if we had to in a crises. I've become accsutomed to breathing air not water, how about you ?
