ABSTRACT:
An emergency buoyancy system for small water craft without built-in flotation which includes an elongate, inflatable container of sausage-like shape having a support harness at each end. Flexible battens distributed crosswise of the container provide stabilization and an optional abrasion resistant envelope can protect the containers against abrasion or puncturing. The devices are to be suspended below the hull of a vessel and inflated to provide additional buoyancy to aid in the flotation of the craft.
