ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is an inflatable raft having an opening formed on one of its four side portions. A downward and then radially inward extended frame is formed around the opening for a top flange of a container to be radio heated thereto. The container has an accordion body. When the raft is inflated, the accordion container can be downward stretched to accommodate a can therein. And, when the raft is deflated, the accordion container can be collapsed along with the raft for convenient storage. The structure of the inflatable raft will not be adversely affected by the provision of the accordion container on the raft.
