There are no guarantees a PFD will save your life. But a correctly rated, well-maintained PFD definitely boosts your chances of survival. The Crewfit 180 is an everyday boating lifejacket designed using 3D technology to radically increase comfort levels.

The successful integration of a high volume shaped bladder design, a peninsula chin support and increased buoyancy to 180N provides wearers with great protection in the water.  A transparent window on the front of the jacket showing the status of the inflator, allowing you to check your lifejacket is in working order without having to unpack and repack the jacket.

Dual buckle system and side waist adjusters, uniquely designed to ensure swift donning – essential if the wind gets up and it’s all hands on deck.

The Crewfit 180 is AIS compatible, and allows for automatic activation on inflation.

Optional internally installed Crewsaver Surface Light (CSL) to help attract attention when inflated, activated automatically on contact with water and can be activated manually if needed.
