Wow this is well equipped with practical equipment. My only issue is the lack of velcro storage bags. In case of capsizing because of strong waves. Also the ballists should be filled with those compact towels, or space towels, or even compacted sponges, so they actually absorb the water quickly and fully, im curious if they actually fill with water to its maximum and not just half fill as it is.
The LSA Code actually requires that these systems are designed so the pockets fill with at least 60% water within 25 seconds of being deployed. So, the current standards already focus on making sure the tanks fill up efficiently and fast. Ballast pockets do improve the raft's stability. How effective would they be in a heavy rough stormy sea? It's anyone's guess. That's not something I'd want to experience firsthand :)
How do you think, is all of this sufficient for survival at sea?🤨🤔 Share your opinion with us in comments below⬇⬇⬇ First Part: (Construction Requirements) 00:00 - Intro 00:30 - Liferaft Construction Requirements as per SOLAS and LSA. 00:41 - Liferaft Interior & Entrance.
