CREWSAVER SHOWCASES NEW CREWFIT 190N LIFEJACKET AT LONDON BOAT SHOW 2010

Crewfit 190 N

Crewsaver will be showcasing its all-new Crewfit 190N lifejacket at London Boat Show 2010 alongside the company's latest range of leisure marine products for the dinghy, sailing and watersports market. The official launch will take place at 14.30 on the first day of the show, 8th January, on the Crewsaver Stand N042J.

The new Crewfit 190N raises the bar in lifejacket design. Aimed squarely at today's boating enthusiast, it is packed with cutting edge design features and offers exceptional performance in the most demanding environments.

Lightweight, extremely comfortable to wear and thoroughly modern, the 190N is much shorter and more compact than the ever-popular Crewfit 150N - a benchmark for quality and performance over many years.

Approved to the new standard BS EN ISO 12402, the Crewfit 190N has a special patented inflation chamber designed to support the user in complete safety, even when wearing heavy waterproof clothing. When inflated two asymmetric lobes overlap to provide maximum turning performance when unconscious. The curved outer shaping and neck design increase mouth freeboard and ensure the wearer's head is kept well clear of the water and at the optimum angle.

Other advanced features include a new lifejacket cover, which is shaped three-dimensionally to follow the body’s natural contours. An integrated back mesh panel and fixed dual crutch straps help keep the lifejacket in the correct position at all times. The design also includes belt tidies to neatly stow excess webbing, a soft feel collar, a re-designed sprayhood which is permanently attached on the Plus models, dual lifting beckets, reflective tape, reflective piping and a whistle.

Available in either a Black/Grey or Red/Grey colour combination, the Crewfit 190N range comprises a Crewfit 190N with velcro closure, a Crewfit 190N Junior and a Crewfit 190N with a YKK quick burst zip closure.

All visitors are welcome to try on the lifejacket at our stand and experience its comfortable fit as well as its innovative features.

As well as showcasing the new Crewfit 190N, London Boat Show will provide Crewsaver with an opportunity to promote its current range of buoyancy aids, spray tops and trousers, sailing boots and gloves, its comprehensive collection of drysuits and accessories.
