Enjoy more comfortable and versatile safety that's easy to repack when you put on a Stearns® FastPak™ 24 Automatic/Manual Inflatable Life Jacket before you head out on the water. Its low-profile design makes this US Coast Guard-approved life jacket less bulky than ones constructed of foam, so they're easier and more comfortable to wear. At the same time, the patented L-Tab™ webbing catch secures excess belt length to help keep you from getting snagged. If you do happen to go into the water, it will automatically inflate, giving you one less thing to worry about, or you can convert it to only inflate manually if you want to be able to take a swim without it inflating. If you need to carry some extra gear on you, the triangular accessory hook with a spring clip makes it easy. With the durable nylon shell, this life jacket is sure to be on the boat with you season after season.
