When they set up the raft how long do you think a person would need to survive in it??? we also know that some had to live in a raft for months.
They would need to last as long as it takes to be rescued. The life rafts have water and some nasty form of food that taste like card board. Depending on the size of raft the food and water changes. The 10 person raft today had enough for about a week, but this raft was for a yacht.
