For Sale: AVON 4-MAN LIFERAFT - FOR TRAINING

[Doug Brown]

1990 Avon 4-man single floor, double tube, canopy liferaft. No C02 tank, no survival gear (no HAZMAT).

I installed an air chuck on the CO2 inflation hose so the raft can be filled with a air compressor.

Holds air, EXCELLENT for training in a pool or at the marina. Lets you practice various methods of boarding into the raft, storing ditch bags in it and just generally let you see what it is like being in one.

$50 plus shipping. Should weigh about 25-lbs all boxed up.

Avon 4-man fiberglass canister in very good condition. If you have a valise pack and want to go to a hard pack, this is what you need.

$50 plus shipping. Should weigh about 25-lbs.

Coming from New Bern, NC 28562.

New lower price!

The raft is now $25 plus shipping!

If you are serious about trying to stay alive if your boat sinks, this is the best piece of practice equipment you can buy.

It is a lot different / harder to actually get into a raft than what you read in a book or see in a video. You'll be able to see first hand just how little room there is inside - for both people and your survival bag. Plus you can feel just how cold you get sitting on a single floor raft bottom, and how warm you get when the raft is all closed up.

And remember the warning they give you to immediately take a anti-sea sick pill? Well you can experience first hand why they say to do it!

I got my money's worth from practicing with this raft (as did 3 other cruisers on my dock), time to let the next person(s) give it a try.

------------------------------------------------

The canister is also reduced to $25 - a real bargain. If you have a damaged canister, or want to go from a valise to a canister, here is your replacement. Also could be used for on deck storage.
