Description
Coastal BackTow Lifejacket
Designed for coastal and short offshore sailing, including overnight passages, the new Coastal BackTow Lifejacket delivers maximum safety and comfort without compromise.
Featuring Team O’s award-winning Patented BackTow System, this is the only coastal lifejacket with a moveable harness point. In the event of a fall overboard while tethered, the BackTow system automatically deploys after inflation, turning you face-up in the water and keeping you securely connected to the boat.
This innovative design reduces life-threatening risks by ensuring the wearer remains in a safe, stable position until recovery. The BackTow system also doubles as an approved lifting point, allowing a quick and easy rescue—simply clip a halyard or sheet to the BackTow strop and winch the person safely back onboard.
