A Rescue Boat is made from FRP, between its inner hull and  outer hull is filled with polyesthane foams to offer sufficient buoyancy. If damage occur to the boatbody under water, the buoyant hul can still provide sufficient buoyancy to enable the rescue boat to sail safety on the water surface.
Teel handrails are installed on both sides of the boat for occupants, and meet the latest regulations of SOLAS and international standards.

SOLAS Liferafts are normally located on muster station, on port &starboard side near to the lifeboat, and fwd and aft of the vessel. 

Inflatable Life raft is stored in a GRP container, incorporated with a high-pressure gas used for inflating life raft at the time of emergency.

A Hydrostatic Release Unit (HRU) is connected to liferaft container and ship, which release the life raft even after the ship sinks in water.

The particulars of the SOLAS Life raft are stencilled on the container which includes the capacity, manufacturing date, servicing date, company name etc. along with the launching procedure with a photogenic display for easy understanding.

The basic survival items are already stored in the raft which includes food rations, drinks,smoke signals, knife etc.

Some ships carry a davit launching system which allows the crew to inflate and board the liferaft on the deck, avoiding the risk of going into the seawater. It's more friendly for the old people and children.

A Press winch button to tighten the boat falls to hoist the life boat,if the lifeboat doesn’t come back to its stowed position.
In case of hoisting electrically, if the power on ship is abruptly cut off, the   manual handle may be used to recover boat by manual
