Life Jacket Types Explained

[@montyspearo]

Inflatables need to be adjusted for user and take a bit more setting up. For general use emergency ones stored in cabin best use foam ones, easier to fit and adjust in an emergency.

The cartridge (CO2 bottle) on a inflatable PFD does not have an expiration date. The bobbin does have an expiration printed on it. If the bobbin has expired a new one should be replaced immediately to ensure proper operation. You usually have 3 years of service on a bobbin if it just came from the manufacturer. Don't buy a bobbin at Joe's bait and tackle where it's been on the shelf for 2 years. Before you buy, look at the expiration date. That said, the cartridge should be replaced at the bobbin expiration also. I place my old unused cartridge in the pocket of my PFD in case it's needed.

Should’ve borrowed one of mine to show, they have flak in them to protect organs against a prop strike.
