Spinlock Deckvest VITO Inflatable PFD / Life Jacket with HRS*

Features:

• Deckvest VITO is the latest Spinlock inflatable lifejacket harness technology based on their design work for the Volvo Ocean Race
  • All teams were equipped with the same inflatable lifejacket harness developed in collaboration with a core group of Volvo offshore sailors
  • Fundamental to the new design was a lifejacket that crews actually wanted to wear more frequently, with developed custom features
• Striking design finish in durable rip stop fabric
• 170N buoyancy with Hammar® hydrostatic automatic inflator
  • Hammar® inflation system is activated by water pressure and will not inflate until the cap is approximately 10cm underwater
  • Designed for use in more extreme conditions and extended offshore sailing
  • Benefit of the Hammar® system is that the jacket cannot accidentally inflate when wet with rain and sea spray
  • Unit has a single indicator to show if armed
  • Delayed inflation can be caused if full immersion of the firing head is delayed by buoyant foul weather clothing

• Course and fine-tune adjustments allow custom fit for body size, clothing layers
• Added protection in high impact areas

  • Structured sprayhood to reduce the risk of secondary drowning

* Harness Release System (HRS™) 

• Deckvest VITO DW-VT/H170/HRS is a 170N lifejacket with integrated Deck safety Harness
• All VITO Deckvests are built to allow them to be upgraded with the unique Spinlock Harness Release System (HRS)
• This revolutionary system evolved directly from development work with the Volvo Ocean Race
• HRS™ is a unique system that ensures a simple release from a safety line, even when fully loaded. It is easily accessible with either hand, but significantly reduces the risk of an accidental snag or release
