ADOPTION OF AMENDMENTS TO THE INTERNATIONAL CONVENTION FOR THE
SAFETY OF LIFE AT SEA, 1974
Cargo ships may carry:
one or more free-fall lifeboats, complying with the requirements of section 4.7
of the Code, capable of being free-fall launched over the stem of the ship of
such aggregate capacity as will accommodate the total number of persons on
board; and
RESOLUTION MSC.47(66)(adopted on 4 June 1996)
in addition, one or more inflatable or rigid liferafts complying with the
requirements of section 4.2 or 4.3 of the Code, on each side of the ship, of such
aggregate capacity as will accommodate the total number of persons on board.
The liferafls on at least one side of the ship shall be served by launching
appliances.
1.4 Cargo ships where the horizontal distance from the extreme end of the stem or stem of
the ship to the nearest end of the closest survival craft is more than 100 m shall carry, in addition
to the Iiferafts required by paragraphs 1.1.2 and I 2.2, a liferaft stowed as far forward or aft, or
one as far forward and another as far aft, as is reasonable and practicable. Such liferaft or
liferafts may be securely fastened so as to permit manual release and need not be of the type
which can be launched from an approved launching device.

As always with regulations, SOLAS is also far behind today's reality.
In my opinion, a few life rafts on the bow and near the superstructure would give a safer feeling!
Remember the last car carrier. They had to jump 33 meters down to safety because they couldn't reach the lifeboats.
