Hutchwilco Inflatable Life Jacket SC170N – Manual with Harness (170N)

The Hutchwilco SC170N Manual Inflatable Life Jacket with Harness combines reliable buoyancy and full manual control with the added security of an integrated safety harness. Designed for serious offshore sailing and boating applications, this life jacket offers 170 Newtons of buoyancy and complies with NZS 5823:2005 – Type 401 marine safety standards.
