We are looking to see if anyone could help to provide (or knows someone that could provide) an unarmed life raft for an all women led safety seminar on May 17th at the Milwaukee Yacht Club.

This would help save money and provide the people attending the seminar some real experience with a life raft which is invaluable. We would inflate and use the life raft in the pool and have people try to climb in and out of it. Please email Anne Keel at: if you are able to help us with this. We would greatly appreciate it!!

Best,
