How rental works
Tell us the mission
Aircraft type, passenger count, route and dates. We size the raft and quote the same day.
We deliver to the ramp
To your FBO or hangar in South Florida, or overnight to the rest of the country, with paperwork in the valise.
Return it
Hand it back to the FBO or ship it overnight to Sky-N-Sea International Inc. Get the name of the person at the FBO who receives it — we verify the return with them and close your rental. Extensions are an email or text away.
Questions we hear
Can I rent a raft for a single trip?
Yes. Rates are by the day, with weekly and monthly rates for longer deployments or while your own raft is out for recertification.
Which type of raft is right for my operation?
That depends on your aircraft, route and type of operation. Confirm your requirements against your operations specifications and the applicable regulations. We stock both Part 91 and TSO-C70a rafts and will help you choose one.
Can you supply life vests and a beacon with the raft?
Yes. TSO-C13f adult/child vests, infant vests and ACR ResQLink 406 MHz beacons rent per crew member or passenger and ship in the same delivery. See the full equipment list.
My own raft is due for service. Can you cover the gap?
That is one of the most common reasons operators call. We can also arrange the inspection and recertification of your own raft and deliver it back when it is done.
