12DK+

The Viking 12DK+ is a SOLAS‑A approved, 12‑person life raft featuring rapid CO₂ inflation and an upgraded canopy for enhanced durability. The supplied category identifies the equipment as SOLAS A Life Raft, and it is normally installed in an approved deck cradle, container or davit-launching position where it remains accessible for abandonment. In that listed role, its primary purpose is to provide buoyant survival accommodation after emergency evacuation. Throw-over, davit-launched and other SOLAS raft variants differ in deployment and emergency pack, so exact capacity and pack details remain in the approved raft documentation. The model designation identifies the listed configuration, but no additional performance, approval or construction detail is inferred from the model code beyond the information supplied in the source record. The source metadata also states capacity: 12 persons. For exact ratings, dimensions, settings, capacities, materials and variant-specific limits, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.
