Inflatable Life Raft (SOLAS-A) · Life Rafts
The Viking 12DK+ is a SOLAS‑A approved, 12‑person life raft featuring rapid CO₂ inflation and an upgraded canopy for enhanced durability. As a SOLAS A Life Raft, it is normally installed in an approved deck cradle, container or davit-launching position where it remains accessible for abandonment. In that 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. Capacity: 12 persons. For exact ratings, dimensions, settings, capacities, materials and variant-specific limits, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.
