Check Your Seago 150 and 175 Lifejackets

The older Seago 150 and 175 lifejackets have been subject to a recall notice for a few years now, but I'm still finding ones on boats that I survey. The first thing that I do when I discover that the item might be faulty is to remove the cylinder and this is why the jacket in the photo doesn't appear to have one.

Check the date of manufacture of your Seago 150 or 175

The lifejackets are marked with the manufacturing date on the reverse of the white labels found sewn into the lifejacket below the inflation system. The lifejackets affected by both recalls all bear the following marks:

IV/05, I/06, II/06, III/06, IV/06, I/07 and II/07

If you check yours and find that you have one or more  that have a date of manufacture noted above, remove the gas cylinder from the inflation system and telephone Seago on 01825 873632.
