A/M - 24 Auto/Manual Inflatable Life Jacket
The A/M-24 Auto/Manual inflatable life jacket is lightweight and low profile, and the perfect option for kayak fishing, fishing, paddling, or boating in warmer weather conditions. So lightweight and comfortable you won't know you have it on, until you may need it.

I really like this PFD. We have a pair of the Stolquist life vests, and even though they are cut specifically for paddling (men and women’s cuts) these are much more comfortable. It is nice to have the security of a life preserver without the bulkiness of the foam. They are much more comfortable when padding in our kayaks and SUPs. I also like the manual inflation feature since we don’t want it going off every time we hit the water.

I fish on my center console alone sometimes and this can literally be a lifesaver in rough weather fighting a fish when the console rocks and hits you in the back. Thankfully I haven't had to use it yet!!

Lightweight comfortable around your neck and gives you the security of an inflated life, jacket, manual blowup or canister to inflate when you hit the water. Great for kayaking.

I am trying to reach seller on this product. I followed all the instructions because safety is so important. I noticed that 3 of the vests I ordered in 2020 had “bobbins†that are dated 2018. These parts are supposed to be replaced every three years according to the Rearming instructions on page 8 step #5 of the user manual. Currently I am waiting to hear back from the manufacturer about getting 2020 bobbins. Strongly advise reading the instructions carefully. These PDFs are super comfortable and more likely to be actually used! The trade-off is ensuring that you know how to keep them in working condition.

I’m a Marine, aquatic by nature, if you will. I would never be on the water without a PFD!I bought this PFD for fishing on my kayak and John boat. I like how it’s low profile, makes for easy casting.Recharges are relatively cheap and it would be a good idea to pick 3-4 to have around. Which reminds me that I need to pick some up!!The Velcro securing the inflatable membrane has the potential to rub on your neck (mine does).Overall this is a great PFD and it’s USCG approved.I would recommend it to one of my friends if they where looking for one.

these are not bulky, don't get in the way while kayaking or fishing. My husband will wear these when kayaking instead to those bulky ones that are really uncomfortable to paddle in.

Thin, light and unobtrusive. I use it for kayaking and it’s great. Never tested it, I just hope it works when needed.

Very lightweight and comfortable compared to the old bulky jackets. Feel safe knowing it will manually inflate should I not be able to do it myself if incapacitated. Feels like I'm wearing nothing at all but I know I'm protected.
