Life jackets?
 
Looking for a couple of nice poker run jackets. What do you recommend? I am familiar with lifeline but would like to shop around a little before we buy.

If you are running over 85mph, there is no shopping around, call Lifeline, I have been thrown out at aprox. 115mph back in my drag boat days,damn glad i had on my Lifeline!!

Thats why i went out and bought six lifeline vests. I want everyone to be safe. Imagine if someone got hurt or killed becuase you didn't want to spend $300 on a vest. I never take more than 6 people on the boat when i go in the ocean.

Have the Lifeline vest become certified yet or do you still have to carry a bag of the special orange jackets :rolleyes:

I certainly see your point, but that's $1800 worth of life vests! :eek:

And then do you need to buy some extras in different sizes so you have the right size depending on your guests? I see they come in Small, Medium and Large. That could really add up.

Lifelines are good, but so are SRP's
