    Design details

    CO-DESIGNED WITH SAILING CLUBS

    It took 18 months to develop this buoyancy jacket. We designed a 50 Newton buoyancy jacket for sailing clubs, taking into account the constraints of intensive use to create a light, compact, and robust product. The French Sailing Federation (FFV) and 3 partner clubs contributed their knowledge in order to design a product suitable for everyone, from beginners to experienced sailors, not to mention sailing instructors.

    CONSTRUCTION

    The shorter cut of the life jacket and the multiple polyethylene foam panels make it very light for unrestricted use. The plastic buckles on each side of the life jacket are designed so they can be replaced if necessary.
    The absence of a crotch strap on this buoyancy aid allows instructors and leaders to kit out their sailing club. Crotch strap reference: 8797149

    VHF LOOP

    On the left shoulder of the jacket, we added a loop to enable the VHF to be attached. This option proves particularly useful for sailing instructors or when sailing motorboats.

    COMPATIBILITY OF THE TRAPEZE BELT AND HARNESS

    This buoyancy jacket is compatible with all trapeze belts and windsurfing harnesses on the market. The hook loop prevents the jacket from rising unexpectedly by itself.

    MULTI-SPORT

    A 50 N life jacket should be used in dinghies, catamarans, stand up paddleboards, windsurfers, and canoes/kayaks. It can also be used for yacht sailing up to 6 nautical miles offshore, provided it is worn while sailing (Division 240).

    CHOOSE THE RIGHT SIZE

    The buoyancy of the vest depends on the weight of the user.
    30-40 kg

    60-80 kg
    80-100 kg
    + 100 kg
