Switlik Parachute Company

SOLAS-MKII

The MK-II versions of Switlik's 8, 10, 15, 20 and 25 person capacity "SOLAS" life rafts feature large diameter buoyancy tubes, extra large boarding entrances and a rigid boarding step in addition to a boarding ladder. Their two counter-opposed canopy arch support tubes offer more head and shoulder room than life rafts with a single canopy support post. Heat sealed urethane coated fabric makes these rafts extremely abrasion resistant, long lived, and affordable.
