Life Jacket Repairs and Alterations
There's a number of different services and modifications we can perform on
your life jacket to keep it in peak operating condition. Here's some of
the items:
- Add Impact Material
-
-
If you are a Stock or Mod Racer and plan to run any PRO
Outboard class (which includes K PRO Hydro and OSY400) it is a safety
requirement that your life lifejacket include Impact Material in side the
front AND back. Additionally, APBA Stock Outboard, Modified
Outboard and J Categories will require impact material effective November 1,
2007. SRP can take your existing jacket and add impact
material, making it 2008 season-eligible and adding valuable protection.
Along the way, we can clean, recertify and apply any needed TLC to keep your
jacket in top condition.
-
- Add Helmet Restraint
In the faster Stock and Mod outboard classes, and in the PRO category, a
helmet restraint is not only recommended, it’s just good, common sense.
You can purchase a helmet restraint
like this
as a standalone item, or, you can have the helmet restraint straps built
directly into your lifejacket. The advantage of a lifejacket helmet
restraint is easier control and accessibility of the webbing straps, and
some drivers report an improved range of motion with their restrained
helmets. This is just another good way to help protect head and neck
travel range.
- Re-Covering
-
So, you’ve had your lifejacket for 6-8 years, it still
fits you, but it looks ragged and like you have been working in a coal mine
with it. If the straps, fasteners and flotation are in good order and
it just is a cosmetic issue, consider re-covering your jacket. This is
a cost-effective way of getting a jacket that looks like new on the outside
and functions well.
-
- Cleaning
We can clean your jacket to make it look as close to new as we can,
depending upon its age, how much exposure to sun, etc it has had.
- Inspection and Recertification
-
Re-certification of your lifejacket is recommended
every three years. When your jacket is re-certified, it receives a
thorough inspection by SRP to ensure that closures, fasteners, straps,
impact material, skid collar, flotation material and outer cover are in
proper working order and in top condition. Potential trouble issues
are noted and recommendations for repair or replacement are made, if
required.
-
- Zipper Extenders
- Referred to by some boat racers as "The Fat Strap" or "The Wedding
Band", these add two inches additional girth capacity to any SRP jacket.
Perfect for racers over 40 or kids who grow too fast.
