DBC 6-Person Offshore Life Raft

6-person offshore life raft in deck mount canister built by Dunlop-Beaufort Canada in 1988. Raft was certified last year by DBC themselves, including inflation test, floor seam test and hydro test of cylinder. Cert is good until 28-Sep-2011. The raft includes the “offshore” equipment package, with the rations (food and water) expiring in 2015 and the flares expiring in Sept-2013. Canister cover included.

DBC has historically produced quality life rafts for both commercial and recreational use, but probably better known for the former. DBC Marine Safety Systems is now a division of Zodiac.

Asking $600 + shipping (from 36601 – Mobile, AL)

There is a possibility for delivery to Southeast or Eastern states depending on price and timing.

I hope not - I'm working on a good possibility but it isn't finalized yet.

Re: DBC 6-Person Offshore Life Raft

I'm dropping the price to $500 obo.

I thought I had a deal (agreed price, etc.) but when it came time to consumate (exchange money), the guy went silent and I haven't heard from him in over a week. I've already pulled the raft off the boat and carried it around in the car for a few days. Now it is clogging up the apartment, so we're looking to move it. Bring offers.

Thanks.
