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.
Depending on dates, I would like to put myself up for crew/ballast duties !?! A short Friday to Sunday ?? I’ve decided it’s all a bit too much for me to take my own boat ! I also understand that regulars will take first dibs , so no hard feelings if I’m overlooked ☹️ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
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 ,
