Liferaft - VIKING, 4DK+, throw overboard (4 pers.)

Full description

Upon release from its stowage arrangement, this type of liferaft either slides automatically or is thrown overboard manually. Once waterborne, the liferaft inflates by a firm pull to the painter line.

Throw-overboard liferafts are mainly used on commercial vessels, passenger ships or offshore assets. While 4-person capacity liferafts are generally not covered by the SOLAS convention and thus not eligible for SOLAS approval, the 4DK+ liferaft in our range is manufactured and tested in accordance with SOLAS/MED requirements and relevant flag state approvals.

VIKING has been manufacturing, supplying and servicing liferafts of the throw overboard type since the company was founded in 1960. With thousands of lives saved over the years, this product has earned its reputation as a true essential when it comes to safety at sea.

The VIKING throw overboard liferaft comes in sizes from 4 – 35 persons and is available with emergency pack SOLAS A or B. It can be sourced directly through our shop or as ‘liferaft exchange’ with a Shipowner and Offshore Safety Agreement.
