Inflatable PFDs
THE INFLATABLE SAFETY REVOLUTION | Experts agree that reducing mouth immersions increases your chances of survival in marine rescue situations. The Inflatable Vest PFD with L.I.F.T. delivers up to 9 inches of freeboard outperforming industry-standard Inflatable PFDs by reducing mouth immersions by 80% and increasing your chances of survival.

NEW Inflatable VeSt PFD With EŒD Patents Pending
The Inflatable Vest PFD with L.I.F.T. delivers a high level of safety for users in variable wind and wave conditions by elevating the mouth out of the water by up to 9 inches. Known as freeboard, this increase in elevation has been shown to reduce underwater mouth immersions by 80%, increasing the chance of survival in accidental immersion situations. A perfect product fit for performance sailors and power boaters, the Inflatable Vest PFD with L.I.F.T. is also an excellent choice for individuals who desire added protection.
Constructed with a highly durable wind and waterproof fabric, the vest is a lightweight product designed with a shorter length and a low and flexible profile ensuring users maximum mobility during even the most rigorous activities. A removable sailing harness is available for purchase separately.

Mouth Immersions Increase Risk of Drowning
Turbulent marine environments and variable wave conditions make for hazardous and sometimes unpredictable boating conditions-the rougher the water, the higher the risk of falling overboard. Once in the water these same conditions increase your risk of drowning by increasing the likelihood and number of times your mouth may be underwater. Reducing the number of mouth immersions will increase your chances of survival.
L.I.F.T.- The Inflatable Revolution
Based on experience developing inflatable technology for the US Air Force and NASA, Mustang Survival developed the revolutionary Life-saving Inflatable Flotation Technology - L.I.F.T. - inflatable cell, which can provide up to 9 inches of distance between the mouth and the surface of the water. This distance, called freeboard, decreases mouth immersions by elevating the head and chest up and out of the way of waves and swells.
L.I.F.T. Reduces Mouth Immersions and Increases Visibility
Tested for the most hazardous and treacherous wave conditions at independent UL-approved research facilities, the PFD with L.I.F.T. delivered up to 9 inches of freeboard and outperformed other industry leading PFDs by dramatically reducing mouth immersions by 80%. The higher freeboard also increases your chances of survival by increasing your visibility to rescue teams-the higher your head and chest are out of the water the easier it is to see you.
