Did you know
- Zodiac Nautic, a French company known for its inflatable boats, originated from a company specializing in airships in 1896. The boating division was split off from the aerospace-focused Zodiac Group in 2007. The Zodiac Open Sea liferaft is designed for open sea sailing and meets the ISO 9650 Type I Group A standards.
- The Open Sea ISO 9650 is a Type 1 liferaft, specifically designed for ocean navigation and long voyages, distinguishing it from Type 2 liferafts like the Zodiac Coaster ISO 9650, which are intended for coastal navigation.
- The Open Sea is built for the rigors of open sea conditions, featuring 100% bonded PVC fabric with Zodiac's Thermobonding™ technology for durability and watertight seams, an aluminum-coated insulated bottom for thermal protection, and the ability to inflate instantly within a wide temperature range.
