BEST OFFER! Switlik 4 Person Rescue Pod, Model S-2925 Has never been deployed. Does not have a current inspection. Here is the factory description: The RESCUE POD is a very high quality and rugged inflatable flotation platform with canopy that supports four people and offers basic protection from the elements. The compact sizes of its fiberglass container or soft valise allow it to be carried aboard the smallest open sport fishing boat, day cruiser or sail boat. Although small in packed size, the RESCUE POD is extremely tough and durable. We use the same inflation system, double-coated 16 ounce per square yard urethane coated nylon buoyancy chamber materials, double-taped overlap seams, and construction techniques as on our USCG Approved Life Rafts. The single chamber main buoyancy tube provides 800 pounds of primary flotation and the 6 independent compartments of the inflatable canopy offer 210 pounds of reserve buoyancy. The double layer inflatable canopy design is the same as used on the one person Life Rafts we manufacture for fighter pilots of the United States Navy and Air Force. The canopy design provides better hypothermia protection than the single layer canopy used on most standard Life Rafts. Upon inflation of the RESCUE POD, the canopy remains furled around the top of the buoyancy tube until needed. This allows for easier boarding from either the water or your vessel. Once in the POD, the occupants can immediately pull the canopy over themselves for protection from wind and rain. The canopy can then be inflated using the oral inflation tubes. To keep the packed size as small as possible and reduce the cost of servicing, the RESCUE POD only contains a hand pump, repair clamps, and a waterproof combination strobe/flashlight. We recommend that you equip a separate "Abandon Ship" bag with additional items appropriate to the area in which you operate your vessel. The RESCUE POD should be serviced within 24 months of purchase and every year thereafter. The simple design of the RESCUE POD offers the additional benefit of lower service fees than those for standard Life Rafts.
