Kru Lifejackets

I've been using one of these Kru jackets the last couple of months. It's the most comfortable LJ I've come across.

They're made in Scotland and supplied through Ocean Safety.

Agreed - picked one up at the boat show and it's the best one I've ever had, although acid test is when I fall in....

Humble apologies Taf.

I don't get the time to read all the threads these days and even if I did I wouldn't take any notice of them.

Somebody told me you're all c*nts.

Whilst dear Dave maybe getting old its still a great jacket.

I had one of the early proto-types a few years back and fell in love with it.

I have 25 of the buggers now.
They are ideal for a charter/sea safari business.
So easy to put on the customers and adjust, speeds everything up and after all time is money

Also very nice webbing ideal for hanging you Standard Horzion hand held off of

Cheers

Standard Jon

or as seen recently

Bog Standard Jon!

Kru Jacket

Hi Guy's

Just read through this thread, Dave as the Stigg!!!! On a more serious note what is the total bouyancy on this jacket?

Being one fully paid up members of the "who ate all the pie's" Club. I was advised by a very knowledgable lifeboatman that I would need a 275 Newton lift jacket to keep me afloat with all my kit on.

Any idea's Dave and please do not say diet
