The marine pool pfd This is my first impressions review of this pfd. The
first thing that strikes you with this pfd is that there are loads of pockets. It is very comfortable to wear and is made
from good quality material and fittings. I particularly liked the small material collar this will mean the pfd will not
chafe your neck on those hot summer days.
The fastening is simple it has a secure buckle in the middle and a lace tie on
both the bottom and the collar so there is plenty of adjustments to make this pfd fit securely and comfortably .
It has 4 large zipped pockets the bottom 2 pockets have 2 smaller pockets which
are Velcro pockets attached to the main pockets these are very handy for quick access of small items like a spool of line
or a few packs of hooks ect. The 2 smaller breast pockets are very well placed and are Velcro pockets. It would be no
problem to carry all your tackle in the many pockets.
The back has a 2 main flotation sections one each side which are divided
by a stitched spine this means when its worn the pfd moulds to your shape making for a comfortable day with it on .The pfd
has a 50 Newton rating.
All in all I think this is a very wekll designed pfd which I feel will be very comfortable
to wear it is lightweight and strongly made I was surprised to find that the price is just £26.95
The pfd is the
most important piece of kit you will buy for your safety
It should be worn at all times And correctly fastened even for the shortest paddle trips when at sea It may save your life.
