The US Coast Guard issued a notice (click
here to view) that will phase out approval for any survival
craft in which an individual is immersed in the water by January
1st 2015. Survitec Group has taken an leadership position for
assisting sea-goers by providing easily accessible information
about the change, as well as recommendations for replacing your
equipment with suitable products that meet the new USCG
guidelines. The key factors for determining what life raft will
meet your needs are:
- What is the size of your vessel?
- What is the passenger load?
- Does it stay in Local waters, or does it enter
international waters?
For vessels that stay close to home, our
Yachtline or has
configurations that accommodate 4, 6, or 8 people. Another
solution for vessels that go further out, but still need to meet
the USCG-approval requirements, is the DBC line of
Approved Liferafts
- also available in 4, 6, and 8 person configurations.
Please contact us by phone at 604-278-3221 or
email at
dbc.sales@survitecgroup.com to find the
nearest dealer or distributor, or discuss how we can best supply
the survival craft that meets your needs.
