Kent A/M-33 Auto/Manual Inflatable Life Vest, USCG Type V, 30-65" Chest
The Kent A/M-33 Auto/Manual Inflatable Life Vest is a USCG Type V personal flotation device with Type II performance, built for boaters who want low-bulk comfort without sacrificing certified protection. Its auto/manual inflator triggers on immersion in water or can be fired manually via the jerk-to-inflate handle, and the mechanism converts to manual-only operation if preferred. A durable Nylon Ripstop cover with a V-back design keeps the vest comfortable across a wide range of motion, while the 1.5 inch buckle and body belt secure a confident fit from a 30 inch to 65 inch chest. A YKK Quickburst zipper allows quick donning and rapid emergency exit. Once inflated, the vest delivers a minimum of 35 lbs of buoyancy, meeting Type V/Type II requirements for boaters over 80 lbs and 16 years of age and older.

Sizes & Options
This vest is offered in two colors, Black and Green, both sharing identical construction, sizing, and USCG rating. Choose whichever color best suits your visibility preference or boat's color scheme; performance and fit are the same across both. Confirm your chest measurement falls within the 30 inch to 65 inch range before ordering, as this is a single universal size per color rather than a graduated size run.
