I've been wanting to buy a life raft for a long time but I've been putting it off...
A buddy of mine had a VERY close call recently when he hit a submerged container on his way out to fish the Rose and Crown off Nantucket. He was cruising at about 35 knots, and it basically took the bottom foot off his 31' Jupiter from just aft of the bow to the bracket. Peeled away like a sardine can.
He didn't sink and no one was hurt, but the experience scared the hell out of him.
The Rose is not that far off shore, and I've been tempting fate too long.
Any suggestions for a good, affordable 4-person raft?
Thanks.
