Did you open your liferaft to see the 'quality' of your rafting
Today I open my too old liferaft
1 x10 class 2 +24h
1x8 class 1
You can see the différence, on the first one the floor could be " gonflé " may better i sudation but not strong
On the second one 'foam ' with aluminium is glued on the flor may be less insulatio than air but stronger

First one 2 bag for stability
Second one 5 bag

First one the tent is only glued on 2x 80 cm and the rest "close' Witherspoon Sandow, only one tickness of clothes

Second one glued all around +some attach only the door close with sandow.
2 tick ess of cloches like tent for camping

On the second one something to try to take some water from the roof in case ofe raining.

The "oars"😄😄😄 the easier to see the différence is to put photos

I let imagine witch one came from the first, can't even be use to remove pizza from open, not strong and big enough may be wil be ré ycled for 'raclette'.

All this expensive thing for that !? The class 1 is better but twice the price, not sure the différence of quality justifie the double price
 
Also on the first one all the rope are flat Light white rope on the second one yellow sling.
