Life Jacket Question
Gentleman -
What do you guys recommend for a life jacket for high speed pleasure boating, Poker Running, etc... ? It's probably time I invested in some real life jackets. I know Life Line is the standard, but what model specifically? And where would you buy them? Teague Marine? Thanks, MDS |
Right from Lifeline, great guy.
|
Expensive but the answer is in the name.... LIFEline...invested a lot of money in mine, and so have many other people, but we put irreplaceable items within them.
I run the sport vest.... can customize colors to suit your needs. |
Great people at Lifeline.
They aren't USCG approved, though, so you still have to keep USCG PFD's on board for safety inspections. |
Anyone using the aviator sit down version from lifeline?

I bought 4 for my family when we did poker runs.
They were very expensive, but they are the best. |
We use the Mustang Elite Inflatable Automatic... Quite comfortable. Found them on an eBay store for a good price, new. Bought 5 or 6 at one time. Think we paid $195 a piece. Hard to put a price on safety when you're running 100 mph plus!!!

Lifeline was a pleasure to deal with , sent a jacket to them that was out of date and it came back like new ........they even put a wedding band in the box for me

Inflatables are for drunk fisherman falling off their boats. Not for high speed impact. I would go so far as to say they might be lethal with that belt wrapped around your body. Those orange five dollar jackets are a joke. Again could be lethal on a high speed impact. Poker Run Lifelines are the real deal.
