If you haven´t finished the story yet you might want to NOT check out this guide.

To make your character look more remarkable and distinctive there is now a variety of different hats, heads and helmets in the game of which you can choose the right one just for you.
If you manage to get your hands on it, of course..

You don´t need to choose between an Oxygen Bottle and a nice hat or helmet - you can wear both at the same time.

You can buy the following super awesome hats and glasses at the new Trading Posts on the big islands.
Each one of these hats or glasses cost 6 Trash Cube and 6 Trade Coins.

You need to have Tier 2 in trading post to buy

Chef´s Hat


Disguise Glasses


Sailor Hat


And you need to have Tier 3 for those:

Diving Helmet

(Only "Somewhat airtight" - which means it does not help you breath underwater.
It is a purely cosmetic item.)

Fishing Hat


Sunglasses


Pirate Hat


So, let´s go ahead and buy some purely cosmetic stuff at the Trading Posts instead of actual useful things like...mhhmm... titanium maybe?

If you follow the storyline in Raft you should find these two:

Mayors Hat
Can be found at the Mayors Office at Caravan Town- it´s hard to miss that one.


Construction Helmet
Can be found at Varuna Point - where else would you find one if not on a huge although abandon construction site?

You also (hopefully) find these blueprints by following the storyline.
These are not purely cosmetic items, the Head Lights actually give you light..
But be carefull and take them off if you don´t need them, they will break eventually.

At the Radio Tower you can find the blueprint for the
Head Light


And at Varuna Point you´ll find the blueprint for
Advanced Head Light


(And remember, even if this makes no sense: You can use empty batteries to make both Helmet Lights)

If you kill an enemy animal you usually get a head during harvesting.
You can put the heads on a trophy board to show everyone who´s the Boss.
Or put the heads in your Biofuel Refiner and make some biofuel - nothing to waste in a survival situation, right?

But, if you don´t mind the smell ;) you can use these heads as hats as well.

Fish Heads:

Shark Head


Poison-Puffer-Fish Head


Anglerfish Head
(This one is actually useful, if you don´t mind the spiky teeth pocking in your face, the head gives you a little light in the dark, just like the Head Lights but not as bright)



Bird Heads:

Screecher Head


White Screecer Head
(Much easier to kill than his big brother, but it can only be found at Caravan Town)



Mammal Heads:

Warthog Head


Hyena Head


Alpha Head
(The Alpha does not respawn so make sure to harvest it properly to get the head after you managed to kill it)

(Not sure if all the green glowing stuff is healthy, but it looks very cool, right?)

Polar Bear Head


Bear Head


Mama Bear Head
(Mama Bear does not respawn so make sure to harvest her properly to get the head after you managed to kill her)

If there is a small tropical island, there is only a 2% change that either the Shipwreck or the Plan Crash Island spawns - and that´s the only islands where you can find the following awesome hats:

Captain´s Hat on the Shipwreck Island


Pilot Helmet on the Plane Crash Island


So, if you spot a small tropical island, that looks a little bit different than the others - make sure to check it out.

And the last one is the mysterious
Tiki Mask


You need to do some Treasure Hunting with your Metal Detector and your Shovel and find 4 different Tiki Pieces.
Which will take a long, really looong time.
Then you need to work some magic to create the mask, but I am not going to ruin the magic and tell you how..

That´s all the hats, heads, helmets and glasses in RAFT, hope you enjoyed.
