An inflatable or insulated floor is an option with many coastal and offshore life rafts, and is one that should be considered if the raft may be used in cooler waters. Even water that we consider warm enough to swim in can cause hypothermia if exposed to it for a long period of time. Survival equipment supplied with the rafts vary greatly and in many cases can be augmented by the owner. Many rafts do not have room for additional items due to space limitations, so packing an abandon ship bag is a good idea. Entering a life raft from the water is extremely difficult.
Some brands now offer inflating boarding ramps that make entering the raft easier and safer.
