What is a great all around life jacket or life coat for sailing the Pacific Northwest?
I recently bought a sailboat that I love more than life itself – but I am a novice sailor. The boat came with two fairly beat up life jackets and I want to replace them with something wonderful, light weight, colorful and easy to store. Price is an issue – I have seen some jackets in the hundreds of dollars. What is a great all around life jacket/pfd?
Thanks for your advice!
Several options come to mind. The most comfortable, but expensive are those life jackets (PFD’s we call them nowadays) that are intended for kyaking because they bend easily at the waist . I found some nice ordinary (not kayak type) ones at a remarkably low price at Wal-Mart. Don’t bother with the horse collars, you and your guests are less likely to use them. I found West Marine was not a good place to shop for PFD’s on account of price. The life jacket coats are good if it isn’t too hot, but you will probably be sailing in what we call summer here in the pacific northwest, so a nylon life jacket that fits around your torso is best. They make some for women that allow more chest area too. The ones that have a panel of nylon (not just strings) on the sides are better in cold water, but hard to find.
Good Luck. Try to keep the boat upright, but always wear your PFD in case you get hit by the boom and thrown overboard! If you are new to this may I suggest the Royce handbook of sailing. it is little, but full of great information.
