    Choosing the Right Spinlock Deck Safety Gear

    Spinlock offers life jackets and personal flotation equipment for different types of sailing and marine use. The Deckvest 6D is a full-featured offshore life jacket with an integrated deck harness and is available in 170N and 275N configurations. The Deckvest VITO provides another offshore option with a side-opening design and hydrostatic inflation. The Deckvest CENTO is designed for junior sailors, while the DURO SOLAS range provides 275N SOLAS-approved flotation for marine professionals.

    A safety tether connects a compatible life jacket harness to the vessel’s jackstay or attachment point to help keep sailors connected to the boat while moving on deck. Spinlock offers different tether configurations for varying deck layouts and sailing needs. Additional accessories such as life jacket lights and spray hoods can add visibility and protection, while the correct re-arm kit allows an inflatable life jacket to be returned to service after inflation. LRSE provides in-house inflatable life jacket inspection, re-arming, and servicing.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is the difference between the Spinlock Deckvest 6D and Deckvest VITO?
    The Deckvest 6D and Deckvest VITO are both offshore inflatable life jackets with integrated deck harnesses, but they differ in design and inflation options. The Deckvest 6D has a front-opening design and is available in 170N and 275N configurations. The VITO has a side-opening design and is available with Hammar hydrostatic inflation. Both are designed for offshore sailing, so the better option depends on your preferred fit, buoyancy, and inflation system.
    How does a Spinlock inflatable life jacket inflate?
    Spinlock inflatable life jackets use an automatic inflation system that activates when the wearer enters the water, although the specific inflation mechanism varies by model. Some Spinlock Deckvest models use UML automatic inflation, while others use Hammar hydrostatic technology that activates in response to water pressure. Spinlock inflatable life jackets also include a manual activation handle. Check the specific Deckvest model and inflation system when choosing a life jacket or replacement re-arm kit.
    Are Spinlock life jackets USCG approved?
    Some Spinlock life jackets and flotation devices are USCG approved, but approval varies by model. Spinlock offers USCG-approved Deckvest LITE and LITE+ models for recreational use, while the DURO SOLAS range is designed for marine professionals requiring SOLAS-approved flotation. Always check the specific product's certification and approval requirements for your vessel and intended use. Contact LRSE if you need help selecting an approved Spinlock life jacket.
    Do I need a 170N or 275N Spinlock life jacket?
    A 170N Spinlock life jacket is designed for offshore recreational sailing and provides additional buoyancy for demanding conditions, while a 275N life jacket provides greater flotation for extreme conditions and commercial applications. The appropriate buoyancy depends on your activity, sailing conditions, clothing, equipment, and applicable safety requirements. Commercial operators should also confirm whether a particular approval, such as SOLAS, is required.
    How do I re-arm a Spinlock life jacket after it inflates?
    A Spinlock inflatable life jacket must be re-armed with components that match the specific life jacket model, buoyancy rating, and inflation system. Depending on the model, this may include the appropriate CO2 cylinder and automatic or hydrostatic activation components. Always follow Spinlock’s instructions for your specific model rather than using a generic re-arm kit. LRSE can also inspect, re-arm, and service inflatable life jackets in-house.
    Do I need a safety tether with a Spinlock Deckvest life jacket?
    A safety tether is used with a compatible Deckvest harness to help keep you connected to the vessel while moving or working on deck. Tethers are especially important during offshore, rough-weather, solo, and nighttime sailing when staying attached to the boat is critical. Spinlock offers different tether configurations depending on how you move around the deck and where attachment points are located.
