New Kayak Designed to Rescue Flood Victims

The Design Blog highlights a new kayak designed by Jacob Bullard, which can aid people in distress during storms and floods. The Rez-Q can be thrown from a helicopter out to sea, and then can be expanded using a lever at the end of the boat. The kayak uses lightweight elastic urethane material, and creates an additional 3 feet of space to accommodate an extra person. What do you think of the new designs for disaster relief equipment like this one?
