About this item
- Pull the bright-yellow T-handle to activate inflation in seconds. The visible tab is designed for easy emergency location. This is a manual-only vest: entering water does not inflate it, reducing accidental activation from spray, rain or damp storage. It is intended for users able to pull the cord after falling overboard.
- The seller rates buoyancy at 150 N and describes a self-righting design intended to keep the head above water and avoid a face-down position. The stated adult weight range is 80-300 lb.
- A wide adjustable waist belt and quick-release buckle fit different builds and can be worn over fishing shirts, wetsuits or outdoor clothing without excessive tightness.
- The light, compact folding design permits fishing, kayaking and paddling movement with less bulk than foam vests. A CO2 cylinder comes pre-installed; a replacement cartridge must be bought separately after use.
- The seller cites field testing for stable buoyancy during freshwater kayaking, SUP, shore fishing and boating while allowing movement. Intended users are at least 16 years old and weigh at least 80 lb/36 kg.
- Included accessories are a loud emergency whistle, 2 extra-wide reflective strips for low-light visibility and a bright-blue rescue rope intended to assist locating or hooking the wearer during rescue.
