Oscar Answers Your Questions

Oscar designed and created the TeamO BackTow lifejacket, so we thought that he would be the best person to answer a few questions that we've received by email recently.

If you want to jump straight to those questions the time breaks are in brackets:

1 - How do I clip on when I'm wearing a TeamO BackTow? (00:15.27)
2 - How do I actually deploy BackTow? (00:37.77)
3 - I'm doing a Fastnet this year, do I need the 170N jacket or the 275N jacket? (01.15.64)

 

 

We will be doing another FAQ session soon so if you have any questions about our design or how it functions please comment below!

Coastal 170N BackTow Lifejacket

This life jacket is so light and noninvasive that I forget that I’m wearing it. I highly recommend it!

Received

We received our 170N life vests within two weeks of placing our order. We live in Texas and expected shipping from the UK to take longer. The vests are comfortable to were while on deck. My wife and I are leaving Galveston in April for our years long cruising life and I purchased these life vests because we are expecting to be on watch alone at various intervals. We both clip in our tethers and use jack lines when necessary to go forward while underway.. Neither of us has ever fallen overboard and this is our greatest fear while underway. This vest appears to provide the best possibility for survival if one of us fall overboard while alone on deck.

170N offshore lifejacket

Hoping I never need to use it in anger but so far satisfied with the product.
Fits perfectly, feels lighter than previous version and just love the colour.. !
Initially I didn’t know who to direct my emails to .. but once I found a contact communication ran smoothly.

Few Upgrades and would be Perfect

Now that I worn it for a little while now it’s a really good product! I’m quite happy with it. The only reason I can’t give it five stars is because the leg straps just aren’t beefy enough. I’d like something more substantial to hold on to me if I fall overboard.. These little teeny tiny thin straps will dig into your legs real quick… This is literally the only thing that’s not built to an industrial standard, everything about this lifevest is made for offshore cruising!
