Nope! There will be a life raft, but like a static ship.

What does this mean exactly, that it's just a floating device wich we can bump into but do nothing else with it??

That means, you may have search and rescue missions with a life raft. Imagine you are within heavy weather, gale force, thunder storm, dark´nd rainy...- looking out for a small raft. Manoeuvre close to it to save the people waiting there for you...

Not enough?

Keep thinking!

Just like the saving of a drowning person in 2006 right?

Thanks for clearing it up!

EDITED ABOVE
Also i was just wondering about the morring operations. Will they slam the ship against the wall again? It's annoying that is.

Well that's because the sea was always calm during resue missions  ;)
With the waves there can be a whole new level of excitment in the missions.

I think SS08 should have it incorporated. It would give a nice touch to missions and have more parts...etc. Too bad its going to be a slow flating raft though :-\ 8)

Searching for that life raft would be even better if we had flyable helicopters!
