Life Saving Equipment

Can anyone recommend good suppliers for passenger lifejackets, pyros, liferafts and other general safety equipment.

How much should i expect to pay for inflatable lifejackets and 12 man raft (raft on hire)

Just looking for a guide to avoid paying over the odds.

Do passenger lifejackets need to be SOLAS approved for cat4 coding?

Cheers

I used Ocean Safety as well. Had all I needed. Speak with Iain Cook and he will look after you. David Mc

Nothing against what has already been posted, but for the life jackets check out the Pamaris Raider. I have over 40 of them and cannot fault them or the company.
