Waterproof Solar Powered Flashlight Optional Features USCG Approved Hydrostatic Release Toroidal Stability Device Capacity There is no one universal method of rating raft capacities. In fact, there are several different methods and governmental agencies worldwide that rate the capacity of a life raft based on the following criteria: usable floor area, inflated buoyancy, size of an average individual, and their concept of how long someone might be in the raft before rescue, not to mention how you find yourself to be there, i.e. from a sinking vessel or a ditched aircraft. As a result, SWITLIK takes the position that a life raft’s capacity is truly defined by its total size in floor area and inflated buoyancy. How many “people” that translates into depends upon your usage and interpretation of the above criteria. A raft that might safely support 6 or 8 people in an emergency for 24 hours will seem a lot smaller for a transoceanic passage where rescue might be weeks in coming.
