Our exclusive Ocean Series Life Jacket offers double-layer protection: an automatically inflating life jacket and a sailing safety harness in one comfortable PFD!
The offshore conditions you'll encounter on a sailboat require a life jacket that's comfortable because it won't do you any good if you aren't wearing it! That's where our Ocean Series Automatic Inflatable Life Jacket with Harness comes in.
Automatic Inflatable
Hydrostatic technology offers reliable inflation even in severe conditions! Our Ocean Series features the Hammar 1F auto inflator which uses hydrostatic pressure to automatically inflate only when submerged in 4" of more of water. That means it won't prematurely inflate due to rain, spray or humidity. It's maintenance-free for five years or until inflated and the inflation cylinder is also located inside the bladder to protect it from corrosion. The patented SecureZip™ closure system breaks open easily when inflated, is easy to repack and stays closed during rigorous activities.

Integrated Harness
The integrated sailing safety harness exceeds Offshore Racing Congress (ORC) standards and includes double D-rings for attaching to your safety tether (sold separately). Having an integrated harness makes it easier to wear than having a separate PFD and harness that don't always work well together.
Comfort
This lightweight, comfortable PFD is designed with a low profile for maximum mobility. That last thing you need when you're scrambling across the deck to roll up the jib in a squall is a bulky life jacket that inhibits your movements. Its soft neoprene Comfort Collar won't chafe your neck so you can wear it all day and all night and hardly realize you have it on, whether you wear it over a rash guard or your foul weather gear.
Construction
The 420-denier ripstop nylon cover will stand up to years of harsh conditions and has a small item pocket, strobe light holder and safety whistle. The bladder also includes SOLAS reflective tape to aid others in spotting you should you end up overboard.
