lifejackets
Lighter than the Pilot model, the Family lifejacket is designed for family cruise or day outings with occasional crewmembers. On the Family models, the air chamber and outer cover are a one-piece unit : the outer cover constitutes the back of the air chamber. The Family lifejacket is lightweight and very easy to fold back after use.
