HIT Hydrostatic Inflatable PFD w/Sailing Harness – Red/Black – Automatic/Manual
This front entry PFD automatically inflates when submerged in 4” or more water pressure and features an integrated sailing harness for serious sailors. The lightweight 500D Cordura® outer shell is durable, and the neoprene collar provides all-day comfort. Heavy-duty stainless steel D-rings built into the front of the vest can attach to safety tethers.
The exclusive Hammar® Hydrostatic Inflator Technology (HIT) deploys only when submerged and not when hit with rain, spray, or humidity. The SecureZip stays closed during high winds but opens easily on inflation. A convenient window lets you check the indicator status, and you can also use the manual handle or oral tube to inflate the PFD at any time. The water-resistant pocket secures and protects your essentials. A whistle, strobe light holder, and SOLAR reflective tape all ensure additional on-the-water safety.
*Upon inflation, it is essential to inspect and re-arm your PFD before next use.
