Rex,

I've seen it done both ways. Do you have a stern gate? If so, I'd recommend the 
stern.  

You want it in a place where, in an emergency, it can easily be deployed and 
boarded from the deck. 

The stern is also best in case the boat turtles quickly. It's easier to swim 
down and detach/deploy the raft from there instead of swimming to midship 
underwater. 


All the best,

Edd

Has anyone mounted a liferaft on a 41?  6 person offshore being delivered today 
in canister.  The way I see it, I can either mount on a cradle in front of the 
companionway (may block visibility from helm) or on the stern rail.  Anybody 
have experience in this?  Opinions?
