Description
Developed for the Volvo Ocean Race, Spinlock's Deckvest VITO is the latest Spinlock inflatable lifejacket harness technology. With added protection in high impact areas, and a high intensity, water activated flashing LED Light, the Deckvest VITO has the features you need for offshore conditions.
