Mal Thomas Posted January 16, 2018 Report Share Posted January 16, 2018 http://www.lifejackets.co.uk/ a variety to suit budget, recommend 150n auto with crutch strap as a minimum approx £65.00, may be spares could be a compromise in specification if budget is tight.

Mal Thomas Posted January 16, 2018 Report Share Posted January 16, 2018 A crutch strap is very important, make sure your choice has them. charlieannear, Coddy and Jim 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverick Martin Posted January 16, 2018 Report Share Posted January 16, 2018 or add them for not a lot of money. A life jacket without one can assist in drowning you! Coddy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coddy Posted January 17, 2018 Report Share Posted January 17, 2018 Hate to say it but is your life worth a second hand life jacket? Too many are sold that are faulty at boot shows etc. Anything over 10years old you should really think about replacing anyway. I have seen too many that have not been looked after or checked regularly and suffer accordingly Perhaps its time we had a lifejacket clinic at a club meeting, I am sure Mike & I can arrange to do it.

Totally agree , three new life jackets are my very first purchase before picking up my new boat this weekend . Inshore flare pack next Vhf ( not sure if the old one will be any good after getting a little damp) etc, etc , Jim 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Posted January 17, 2018 Report Share Posted January 17, 2018 Look forward to a Life Jacket clinic refresher. Would be good for the newer members and Good for Me 'cos' I forget things. Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
