People often ask us if they should make their lifejacket choice based on their body weight, but in reality it is more to do with the type of sailing you are planning.

Fluro Pink, lifejacket, lifejacket review -

Sometimes running a small business feels like a mammoth challenge. The competition are massive, we are tiny by comparison. But in the words of @davidhieatt, tiny is fast, and the world is changing fast, not slowly.Roughly 4 weeks ago at the Southampton Boat Show I had a conversation with a team mate about how we thought fluro pink was about to have a ‘moment’ in sailing fashion terms. Hugo Boss had just launched their new boat with it’s pink touches and some of the top race teams in the world have chosen it for their spinnakers and crew kit recently. I...

2019, lifejacket, lifejacket review, press, Recommended By, yachting monthly -

Tested for comfort, inflation time, rotation time and in-water testing of the BackTow system, the Yachting Monthly team recommended the TeamO Lifejacket as one of their top 3 picks and commented: "The TeamO BackTow solution seemed the more sensible (option) to us, particularly for cruising sailors."

BackTow Technology, Innovation, lifejacket, Pool Test, Product Review, Video -

We had an email yesterday from a customer who wanted to see how the sprayhood functions on our BackTow lifejacket. What better way to show this than to throw our Head of Design in to the pool to show you in person?! Here Oscar shows you: - TeamO's patented BackTow system, where the handle is located on the lifejacket- SOLAS light, which switches on automatically once wet. It operates for 8 hours continuously (unless switched off) and has a 5 year warranty- the whistle- the oral tube, for topping up the lifejacket if so desired- the sprayhood and how it...

backtow, Innovation, lifejacket, new technology, product upgrade -

As part of our regular testing and development at TeamO Marine we are constantly upgrading our designs to improve our products. We have recently discovered that in warm temperatures and under the application of extremely high loads some of our early generation BackTow jackets may accidentally deploy because of the increased flexibility of the release wire in warm temperatures. We have already rectified this on our latest jackets but we are offering a free handle upgrade and free service to any customer who owns a jacket with a production number between TEO001 and TEO250. You can check if your jacket...

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!

Great craftsmanship

I just opened my new N170 and am incredibly impressed. The craftsmanship is truly superb.
I spent my entire career of 46yrs. either as a sailmaker or running my own canvas shop for 34 years. It really is a piece of art, hats off to the people who make these. I of course will recommend it as the one to buy.
I was hoping that I ordered it in time for the included tether. Close but no cigar.
Thank you all for working so hard to put out a great product

Great buying experience, well made product.

The whole buying experience was professional and smooth.
Product arrived promptly and very well packed.

Jacket itself appears a very well made, quality product. Clearly in a different league to some of the others I have here.
Neat, tight stow, with a well fitting cover. Supportive harness. Shaped yoke and straps make for a good, snug, yet comfortable fit.

Very comfortable to wear, male 1.8m & 85kg.
My vhf and PLB holsters fitted easily. Sizing adjusts easily to suit appropriate ppe.

I'd v probably give 5 stars once I've had some longer days afloat with it, but quite early days yet...

One of the best LJs I've used during. >40 year career in commercial marine industries.

V pleased, would buy again.
