You should choose your buoyancy jacket based on your weight, to make sure that you get good buoyancy, and the various adjustment systems will then let you fit it to your body shape.
Why choose the expedition waistcoat?
The chosen construction separates the stowage area from the ventral foam area, which limits the movement of the whole waistcoat when the body rotates while sailing.
This construction provides great freedom of movement.
The BA X900 is the only waistcoat in the range to feature a quick-release system.
It is also equipped with a reflective system in case of low light.
What should you put in your waistcoat?
There’s a large front pocket so you can store the equipment suited to your expertise:
- safety and rescue trained group leader, you will be able to store your phone, 1 knife, 4 carabiners, 3 pulleys and 1 safety tape, snacks and attach your safety tether.
