The name WINSLOW® has been synonymous with high quality life rafts for sixty years. Founded in 1941 as the New York Rubber Company in upstate New York, the company constructed life rafts for the Allied Forces. After World War II, the company moved its operation to Sarasota, Florida, and was acquired by John C. WINSLOW, who then produced the first marine and aviation life rafts available to the private sector. In the 1970s, during the last years of John WINSLOW's life and after his death, the company and its products suffered from benign neglect. Today WINSLOW® manufactures a wide range of award-winning aviation and marine life rafts. No matter your needs, WINSLOW® has the life raft for you.
