The Coastal Keelboat Vest by Salus Marine Wear has just received Coast Guard approval for your sailing enjoyment this spring. The Coastal keelboat vest is inherently buoyant rather than being an inflatable, so it is actually lighter in weight and can provide safety and protection while sailing and racing.

The big news for keelboat sailors at all levels, is that The Coastal keelboat vest by Salus features a built-in harness, so you can tether yourself and you can adjust the harness as needed. The vest’s design uses round edges for comfort and maximum mobility around the decks plus, The Coastal has a Dri-Lex liner that is breathable for best comfort on hot days and during heavy racing.

Other features that make The Coastal uniquely comfortable are the high cut, large armholes for increased mobility, reflective patches for safety, two large cargo pockets and the fleece lined hand-warmer pockets will be greatly appreciated! Considering that it is both a harness and an approved PFD all-in-one, The Coastal keelboat vest represents a cost-saving as well as safety with maximum mobility.
