Hmmm, det finns endel här som behöver läsa på dessa:
ISAF Offshore Special Regulations, Category 3 Monohulls with Life Raft
Båtkockens förslag på Spinlock deckvest tror jag är den enda som fyller kraven av de som föreslagits.
'
Vilken klass och vilken båt skall du segla?
http://www.happyyachting.com/spinlock-deckvest-5d-170n-pro-sensor kör jag med. Lånar du en väst så se till att kolla att den inte gått över tiden för att byta utlösningsmekanism. Säkerhetsinspektörerna brukar vara kinkiga med sådant. Glöm inte säkerhetslina när du shoppar.
För säkerhets skull (sorry för den taskiga formateringen):

5.01
Lifejacket 5.01.1
Each crew member shall have a lifejacket as follows:-**
a)**i In accordance with ISO 12402
–
3 (Level 150) or equivalent, including EN 396 or UL 1180
**
ii Lifejackets manufactured after 1 January 2012 shall
be in accordance with ISO 12402–3 (Level 150) and shall be fitted with:-
**
• an emergency light in accordance with either ISO 12402
- 8 or SOLAS LSA code 2.2.3. • a sprayhood in accordance with ISO 12402
- 8. • a full deck safety harness in accordance with ISO 12401 (ISO 1095) including a crotch or thigh strap (holding down device) as specified in ISO 12401 (ISO 1095).
• If of an inflatable type either
(a) automatic, manual and oral inflation or (b) manual and oral inflation
Notes: ISO 12402 requires Level 150 lifejackets to be fitted with a mandatory
whistle and retro-reflective material. Also, when fitted with a safety harness, ISO 12402 requires that this shall be the full safety harness in accordance with ISO
12401. Any equivalent lifejacket shall have equal requirements.
Persons of larger than average build are generally more buoyant than those of average build and so do not require a lifejacket with greater levels of flotation.
Wearing a Level 275 lifejacket may hamper entry into liferafts.
b) fitted with either a crotch strap(s) / thigh straps or a full safety harness in accordance with ISO 12401,
**Note: The function of lifejacket crotch/thigh straps is to hold the buoyancy element down. A crew member before a race should adjust a lifejacket to fit then retain that lifejacket for the duration of the rac
e. Correct adjustment is fundamental to the lifejacket functioning correctly. '
c) fitted with a lifejacket light in accordance with SOLAS LSA code 2.2.3 (white, >0.75 candelas, >8 hours),
**d) if inflatable have a compressed gas inflation system,
**e) if inflatable, regularly checked for gas retention,
**f) compatible with the wearer's safety harness,
**g) clearly marked with the yacht's or wearer's name,
**j) It is strongly recommended that a lifejacket has a splashguard / sprayhood See ISO 12402 – 8, MoMu1,2,3,45.01.4 The person in charge shall personally check each lifejacket at least once annually.
**5.02 Safety Harness and Safety Lines (Tethers) MoMu0,1,2,3
5.02.1 Each crew member shall have a harness and safety line that complies with ISO 12401 or equivalent with a safety line not more than 2m in length. MoMu0,1,2,3 Harnesses and safety lines manufactured prior to Jan 2010 shall comply with either ISO 12401 or EN 1095.Harnesses and safety lines manufactured prior to Jan 2001 are not permitted.
a)Warning it is possible for a plain snaphook to disengage from a U bolt if the hook is rotated under load at right-angles to the axis of the U-bolt. For this reason the use of snaphooks with positive locking devices is strongly recommended. MoMu0,1,2,3
5.02.2 At least 30% of the crew shall each, in addition to the above be provided with either:- MoMu0,1,2,3
a) a safety line not more than 1m long, or MoMu0,1,2,3
b) a mid
- point snaphook on a 2m safety line MoMu0,1,2,3
5.02.3 A safety line purchased in January 2001 or later shall have a coloured flag embedded in the stitching, to indicate an overload. A line which has been overloaded shall be replaced as a matter of urgency

5.02.4 A crew member's lifejacket and harness shall be compatible MoMu0,1,2,3
5.02.5 It is strongly recommended that:
-MoMu0,1,2,3
a) static safety lines should be securely fastened at work stations;
MoMu0,1,2,3
b) A harness should be fitted with a crotch strap or thigh straps.
MoMu0,1,2,3
c) to draw attention to wear and damage, stitching on harness and safety lines should be of a colour contrasting strongly with the
surrounding material;
MoMu0,1,2,3
d) snaphooks should be of a type which will not self
-release from a U+bolt (see OSR
5.02.1(a)) and which can be easily released under l
oad (crew members are
reminded that a personal knife may free them from a
safety line in emergency);
MoMu0,1,2,3
e)
a crew member before a race should adjust a harness
to fit then retain that
harness for the duration of the race.

5.02.6
Warning
a safety line and safety harness are not designed to tow a person in the water and it is important that the shortest safety line length possible be used with a harness to minimise or eliminate the risk of a person's torso becoming immersed in water outside the boat, especially when working on the foredeck. 1m safety lines or the midpoint snaphook on a 2m line should be used for this
purpose. The diligent use of a properly adjusted safety harness and t-he shortest safety line practicable is regarded as by far the most effective way of preventing man overboard incidents.
