Davit-Launched Life Raft

medium 147 / 147 models (Inspector)

A davit-launched life raft is lowered under power by a davit and boarded from the embarkation deck before it touches the water, unlike a throw-overboard raft that inflates in the sea and must be boarded by people already in the water or climbing down a ladder or chute.

What makes a davit-launched raft different

A standard throw-overboard life raft is thrown or lowered into the sea in its container, inflates on the painter line, and survivors board it from the water or via a ladder, which works but is slow and exposes people to the sea before they are safely aboard. A davit-launched raft instead hangs from a purpose-built davit, is inflated and lowered under control while still connected to the ship, and lets survivors board directly from the embarkation deck, then be lowered to the water already loaded, similar in principle to lifeboat launching but far lighter and faster to rig.

Davit-launched life raft arrangement — Side view at the ship's side showing the raft canister in its cradle on the davit arm, the wire falls to the davit head, the hydrostatic release unit and painter, and the embarkation deck below.

Main components

Raft container and canister

A rigid fibreglass container houses the folded raft, inflation system, and equipment pack, mounted at the davit head rather than in a standard stowage cradle.

Inflation system

A compressed CO2/nitrogen cylinder inflates the buoyancy chambers and canopy arch within roughly a minute of activation, with the raft designed to inflate and stabilise the right way up even in a seaway.

Lifting bridle and hook

A dedicated lifting bridle, separate from the painter line, connects the inflated raft to the davit hook so it can be raised and lowered under load with people aboard, distinct from a throw-overboard raft's simple painter arrangement.

Davit and winch

A powered or manually backed-up davit lowers the loaded raft to the water and can recover it, and must include a means of quick release once waterborne, plus a secondary manual lowering method if power is lost.

Equipment pack

SOLAS-specified rations, water, flares, first aid, and a repair kit are packed inside, sized to the raft's certified capacity and sealed until an inspection or an actual launch.

Selection and sizing

Capacity (number of persons) must match the muster station's allocated complement with the vessel's approved arrangement, and davit safe working load must cover the raft's fully loaded weight plus dynamic loading during lowering, not just the static weight of raft and equipment. Ambient service temperature range of the inflation system and raft material matters for the trade the vessel actually operates in, since cold-water and cold-climate rated rafts use different inflation gas mixes and materials than warm-water standard rafts.

Regulations and class

SOLAS Ch. III and the LSA Code set construction, capacity, equipment pack contents, and launching time requirements for davit-launched life rafts, including a maximum time allowed from the order to launch to the raft being waterborne with its full complement.
Annual service by an approved life raft service station is required, plus a periodic (typically five-yearly) hydrostatic and full inflation system overhaul, with the interval and scope defined by the raft's approval certificate.
Davit load testing and function testing form part of the periodic survey, separate from the raft's own service, since a raft passing its annual service does nothing if the davit cannot lower it.

Typical faults

Fault	Consequence
Inflation cylinder pressure or hydrostatic release unit past its service life	Raft may fail to inflate fully or on time when launched, discovered only at the worst possible moment
Davit wire or winch brake corroded from lack of use	Lowering under load stalls or runs away, exactly the kind of fault a routine visual inspection without an actual load test will miss
Lifting bridle chafed or a shackle seized	Bridle fails or cannot be released once waterborne, trapping the raft against the ship's side
Equipment pack contents past expiry (flares, rations, batteries)	Survivors have a working raft but non-functional signalling or supplies once aboard

What to look for in a supplier

Approval certificate matching the exact davit and raft combination, since davit-launched rafts are approved as a system, not as interchangeable parts from different manufacturers.
Service station network reachable at the vessel's actual ports of call within the annual service window, since a raft overdue for service is a detention item.
Cold-water or tropical rating matched to the vessel's actual trading area, not a default specification.
Spare hydrostatic release units and painter lines in stock, since these are consumable safety items with fixed expiry dates rather than components that last the raft's full service life.

Treat the davit as part of the life raft, not a separate item; a raft that passes its annual service on a bench proves nothing about whether the davit that has to lower it under a full load will actually work on the day.

Application

Davit-launched life raft for commercial vessels, passenger ships and offshore assets

Common Failures & Inspection Points

Container, securing or hydrostatic-release deterioration prevents correct automatic or manual deployment
Inflation-system leakage or cylinder problems prevent full inflation and are identified during certified servicing
Fabric, seam or valve deterioration causes pressure loss or water ingress
Painter-line, boarding arrangement or canopy damage delays boarding or reduces survival functionality
Expired or missing emergency-pack contents are detected during service or statutory inspection

Service: Inspect container condition, securing, painter arrangement, hydrostatic release where fitted, markings and accessibility. Do not open a sealed raft outside an approved service station unless the applicable procedure permits it. Verify service status and certificate records. Refer to manufacturer and statutory documentation for the exact figure for servicing, pressure and pack requirements.

Spare Parts: Onboard support normally consists of approved securing and release hardware; internal raft spares and inflation-system servicing should be handled by an authorized service station.

Use Cases: Emergency abandonment on merchant, passenger, fishing, offshore and service vessels.

Common Failures & Inspection Points

Area: Jährliches Service-Intervall (SOLAS)
Check: Inspector checks for service label date (not older than 12 months); Standard SOLAS requires complete inspection, inflation test, cylinder control, equipment inventory (pyrotechnics, water, rations)
Area: HRU (Hydrostatic Release Unit) - replacement maximum every 24 months
Check: Inspector verifies HRU expiration date independent of raft service date; PSC checks both dates separately; must be compatible with raft model; use Hammar H20 or similar certified models
Area: Painter line and weak-link system
Check: Inspector checks: Painter permanently connected to ship; weak-link correctly attached to HRU; weak-link breaking strength 1.6-2.0 kN; red color and 30 ft (approx. 10 m) length for throw-overboard; fastening must withstand hoisting force and break under raft weight during ship sinking
Area: Container integrity and lashing straps
Check: Inspector controls: Container for cracks, deformations, water damage; lashing straps tight and undamaged; cradle securely fastened; container stored horizontally stable; seals intact
Area: Davit-System Prüfung (nur DKF+-Modelle)
Check: Inspector checks: Davit connected with cables/ropes; raft attachment straps intact; lateral impact test: raft must withstand impact 3.5 m/s against ship hull; water immersion test from 3 m height without loss of function; document launching procedure

Inflation-system leakage or cylinder problems caused by corrosion, seal deterioration or servicing defects, resulting in failed or incomplete inflation
Fabric, seam or valve deterioration caused by age, UV exposure or contamination, resulting in leakage or loss of buoyancy
Hydrostatic-release or weak-link problems where fitted caused by expiry, incorrect installation or corrosion, resulting in unreliable float-free release
Davit or launching-attachment defects where applicable caused by corrosion, wear or incorrect rigging, resulting in difficulty launching the raft safely

Service: Inspect external condition, securing, painter arrangement, cradle and launching access without opening a sealed raft that requires approved shore servicing. Check service and release-unit dates and verify that identification and capacity markings remain legible. Inspect davit hooks or lifting points where the raft is designed for davit launching. Keep embarkation and launching areas clear and ensure operating instructions are available. Any sealed-container opening, inflation-system work or internal equipment inspection should follow the approved service-station regime. Refer to the certificate, manufacturer instructions and statutory requirements for exact service intervals and replacement criteria.

Use Cases: Emergency abandonment and survival on merchant ships, passenger vessels, offshore units and other craft required to carry approved inflatable or reversible life rafts.
