pocket/pouch for my life jacket

[SteveHall]

a few months ago i got myself a automatic life jacket as the normal jackets were to restrictive, but i really miss the pocket on the lift jacket to keep useful bits and bats, i have looked around to try and find a pocket that can be attached the the jacket but have not been successful. Dose anyone know where i can get a pocket/pouch for my life jacket.

Army surplus, webbing type Ammo pouch. From memory Silvermans was quite a good mail order firm.

And I would like to buy a pouch which attaches to the jacket that contains a pull-over spray hood. Any ideas on that one anybody?

I have had a look on the website, but cant find anything that looks like it will work. I also need an way of getting it onto the straps as if its just a clip on (like mobile phone cases) it will have the risk of falling off when i am going between boats and on rescue.

I cant believe how hard it is to find one, i have been looking now for a few weeks so any help anyone can give will be much appreciated.

Yeah, Let me know if its any good and i might have to get one. I think the next place for me to try is MGA in Rochdale as its only up the road from me and will see if they can help

Steve the 95 pattern stuff has a flap on the inside which goes around the waist belt. This could fit onto the waist of a life jacket. £9 for a pouch about 4 x 6 x 10 from memory. Don't try the 58 pattern as this attached to the belt with 2 metal clips and won't work.
