Liferaft arrives.. finally..
After trials and tribulations with UPS freight, I finally got the 4 man offshore RescYou liferaft from Viking.. Don't use UPS freight if you can avoid it.
I know some serious cruisers like Evans Starzinger and Beth Leonard don't carry a liferaft, but it's comforting to know you have another vessel to jump into if you boat is run down or hits a submerged object.
Nice long 3 years before I need to recertify the raft. It also comes with the SOLAS E pack, designed for offshore/ocean sailing.
