Life raft stowage
The SART can either be stowed in a life raft or lifeboat or it can be installed next to an
emergency exit for carriage to the life raft in an emergency.
For life raft stowage the SART should be positioned for easy access in an emergency. If
the SART is hidden from view then labels should be used to show its position. For
inflatable life rafts the mounting bracket should be discarded to avoid the risk of
damaging the life raft.
