Happy Canada Day, everyone!
I'm looking at life raft options to bring along for offshore adventures (max 30km from shore). We've fished there for years on fair weather days but I saw a few life rafts at the boat show and figured it would be a good thing to have aboard. We don't have a ton of spare room on the boat, so am looking for something compact we can toss on the boat when appropriate, and be large enough to fit up to 6 people in a pinch.
There are a lot of boats where we fish so if something was to happen I expect we would be rescued quickly, so I don't think we need anything that is equipped to last more than a few hours.
Any strong opinions on good options?
