    Ronald.
    I personally have not seen one with yellow rafts(thatโ€™s not to say there werenโ€™t)
    Mostly they were grey/Green.There were so many variations it is possible.
    I attach a couple of pics of just a few examples.
    I will do some research.
    The corvette you show with yellow rafts is HMCS Port Arthur.
    Be in touch.

    Flower Class model as seen at the museum

    For those with more experience than me, were the life rafts yellow or gray?

    Westwind maybe he was in security guard mode more than in historian mode. Sad to say, some people will steal anything that isn't welded down ๐Ÿค‘

    I did the tour 2 weeks ago, great ship with lots of maritime history items. Unfortunately my tour guide seamed to be in a bit if a rush we hoped to be able to wander unescorted but it was not to be.
