A Viking six-person rescue life raft, stored in a fiberglass container and deck-mounted on Mark's boat, is unpacked after servicing to show every item inside.0:02 The consumables include six bags of emergency drinking water (manufactured 2010, expired 2015), two Rosso Red Rouge parachute flares, three Fuoco E-Mano hand flares, seasickness tablets (labeled "Abamine"), a battery pack, a dome light, a blinking exterior light, and a repair kit.0:43 A Solus first aid kit — vacuum-packed with the raft — contains antiseptic wipes, burn cream, zinc oxide, adhesive tape, dressings in three sizes, gauze, scissors, a triangular bandage, safety pins, a plastic burn bag, and waterproof first aid instructions marked not for UK-flagged vessels.1:33 Mark also added a new hydrostatic release, which attaches the container to the cradle and painter line and automatically cuts free between 1.5 and 4 meters depth so the raft floats up and deploys if the boat sinks.2:46 The release cost $150 and must be replaced every two years; the full raft service cycle runs three years, driven by the perishable contents.3:49
