ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a device for supporting a person lying down. The device comprises a vertical breathing hole designed to allow a person to lie face down and continue breathing. In a preferred embodiment where this device is a raft, there is additional provision for breathing so that there is a series of lateral breathing holes disposed above a waterline. In this way, when a person lies face down, that person places their face adjacent to these breathing holes, and draws air into their lungs. Thus, the person does not have to turn their head to the side to breathe.
