Fantastic images! Sea Dart, SeaMaster, and Schneider racers, all my favorites. What more could one want?

However, this is actually the French Bernard HV.42 (or it could be the HV.41, they are very similar).

Nice pic but it looks photoshopped to me. I think the life raft is a resin model kit...it certainly looks familiar.

Guy in the raft looks like he's taking a selfie

I think he's launching a carrier pigeon...cue gags about life rafts making a bluddy small carrier etc.
