The Viking Norsafe Freefall Lifeboat 7.0 is a 7 m free-fall lifeboat rated for 26 persons, built to SOLAS Chapter III and carrying USCG type approval. It is stowed on an inclined launching ramp, normally at the stern, and is released by a hook so that it drops clear of the ship into the sea. It serves as a primary survival craft for rapid abandonment, with seat harnesses, canopy and release gear forming the key safety items.
