Coastal 170N BackTow Rettungsweste

Introducing our new Coastal BackTow Lifejacket: designed for shorter offshore sailing including overnight passages and coastal sailing. The Coastal still features TeamO's award-winning Patented BackTow system. This is the only Coastal lifejacket with a moveable harness point - if you fall overboard whilst tethered to your boat, the BackTow system can be deployed after the lifejacket has inflated to turn you face-up. The person in the water remains with the boat in the safe face-up position, reducing the life-threatening risk of being in the open water. Recovery from the water is easy as the BackTow system is also an approved lifting point. Simply clip a halyard or sheet to the BackTow strop and winch the person back onboard. For a video demonstration of the BackTow lifejacket in action please click here.
