Exterior Inspection

  • Inspect the entire surface of the life raft for any cuts, tears, or abrasions
  • Look for any areas where the material may be fraying or coming apart
  • Carefully examine all seams and stitching for loose threads or gaps
  • Check for any signs of mold, mildew, or corrosion around the seams
  • Inspect the inflation tubes for any cracks, holes, or leaks
  • Make sure the tubes are tightly connected to the raft with no loose fittings
  • Check that the painter line is securely fastened to the life raft
  • Ensure the line is free of knots or tangles that could impede deployment
