Re: Avon Liferafts

You are correct that the underwater stabalizing pockets/bags play a very important part in the safety of the liferaft.
Against this the larger liferaft presents a much bigger surface for windage and hence makes the whole thing possibly unstable.
From what I have read on the subject, the advice I received has been bourn out in practice.
