Hi folks,

Don't know if anyone out there has a Switlik liferaft (I do) but they have issued a recall for a valve malfunction. It is not clear which rafts are affected but I'm calling my service station on Monday to find out. The link is: Switlik

Sent mine in two weeks ago and received a call Friday that it is done and on the way back to me...Mark

Any charge Mark?

Capt. Fred, No charge for the recall. You have to get it to a service provider. There is a place in Wanchese that has a pickup location. If your service is out dated there will be a charge for the service on the raft but not the recall. You should call Switlik about the recall and they can give you more information and a location to bring it too. My raft was still in the service window so there was no charge.....Mark

Cool. I just had mine serviced last winter so I'm good. I'll check on the folks in Wanchese and bring it there next time we're down. Thanks.
