Designed for leisure boaters under sail or power, Ocean Safety's Jon Buoy EVAC has been developed to bridge the gap between a liferaft and traditional man overboard devices.
Lightweight, portable and simple to deploy, it provides vital peace of mind without the bulk of a conventional raft.
We spoke to Oceean Safety's Alistair Hackett to find out more about EVAC.
Key features include automatic inflation, an inflatable arch and canopy, a boarding ladder and grab handles for accessibility, and a weighted keel for stability. Supplied in a semi-rigid valise with a three-year service interval, the EVAC combines ease of stowage with dependable protection in an emergency.
