As part of his preparation for the Mini Transat, Hugo (The Sailing Frenchma,n) will visit plastimo workshops to discover the assembly of his life raft.
This self-inflating model in bag developed especially for the Mini (with some specificities in addition) is assembled in the factories of Lorient. Hugo has the chance to follow the bagging of his raft. He will be able to discover it inflated ready to be used and to have an eye on what it contains: pyrotechnic material, armament, lighting, signalling and inflation systems.
euros at the end the raft is vacuum packed, compacted and put in its bag. Thus equipped, Hugo can leave to install his raft on his boat. On a Mini, the raft is stored under the cockpit directly accessible from the escape hatch on the transom. So even if the boat is overturned, the raft is always accessible.
