 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had the most incredible experience with Marine Safe Australia when purchasing a life raft for our yacht. Not only did Pete work with us to decide which raft best suited our offshore needs, he then explained how it works and went over and above to develop a unique system to attach it to our boat. Pete and his family are second to none in expertise and service. We will recommend them without a second thought - there is no better thanks guys from us over at Sailing Astrid the Wombat

Started talking with MSA over 12 months ago and am grateful for not only their expertise and product, but willness to help and teach. We had a mounting issue that we thought was a big deal...but it wasnt. They came up with a workaround and we were told to put our wallet away. I hope i dont ever need to review the actual product but my experience dealing with this crew was sensational.

We had a large order to be consolidated for overseas shipment which required lots of questions back and forth with Marine Safe. They provided timely advise throughout the process and information required for dangerous goods. Highly recommend Marine Safe and good to support a small family run business.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can't speak highly enough of this company. They guided me through the purchase of a Liferaft and lifejackets and harnesses to ensure I would meet the up-coming changes to the regulations. Every point of contact from my first inquiry, to accounts and then the warehouse people loading my car - was 10/10. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

We sell and service only quality European liferafts

The purchase of a life raft should not just be a click of a mouse button on a webshop. When a life raft is launched in an emergency it will probably be the middle of the night in a storm.

It has to work as there are no backups.

Liferaft Sales.

We have carefully chosen the brands of liferaft we sell and support. Viking and Ocean Safety have been designing, testing, and manufacturing liferafts for over 40 years.

We do not sell liferafts online as there are many things to take into consideration before purchasing.

Liferaft Stowage.

Where you will stow the life raft is very important. Will it be below deck or above? Maybe a stainless-steel cradle could be an option with the life raft mounted on its side on a railing.
If the life raft is to be stowed below deck in a valise can it be easily launched in rough conditions and are all the crew strong enough to carry the liferaft on their own if someone is injured?

Liferaft Capacity

Another important factor is how many crew will normally be on board when the vessel is cruising offshore. Liferafts are manufactured in 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 person sizes. The wrong size liferaft would be very uncomfortable or could even dangerous in rough conditions.

Liferaft Servicing

Are there approved service stations in your local port? If you are heading to distant shores is the no-name brand you have found at a great price online supported internationally.

There has been a flood of grey import vessels into Australia over the last 10 years and many have arrived with a liferaft. A quick search online will find plenty of second-hand liferafts at a steal but there are no approved service stations in Australia.
