Raft

A raft is any flat structure for support or transportation over water. It is usually of basic design, characterized by the absence of a hull. Rafts are usually kept afloat by using any combination of buoyant materials such as wood, sealed barrels, or inflated air chambers (such as pontoons), and are typically not propelled by an engine. Rafts are an ancient mode of transport; naturally-occurring rafts such as entwined vegetation and pieces of wood have been used to traverse water since the dawn of humanity.

Examples of use of rafts
1. "Inflatable rafts will be used to reach stranded people.
2. Search and rescue teams checked the river with rafts Tuesday.
3. Float trips also include rafts, kayaking or canoeing.
4. A Coast Guard plane earlier Monday dropped three life rafts, but roiling waters shoved the rafts underneath the dipping port side of the 654–foot ship.
5. "The rescuers brought rafts up to the houses," Moore said.
