The Kent 30-inch Ring Buoy is a critical piece of marine safety equipment designed for man overboard scenarios. This essential Type IV Personal Flotation Device (PFD) provides an immediate, highly visible throwable flotation aid to stabilize a person until rescue can be performed. The rigid, durable construction ensures it remains functional and compliant in harsh marine environments, solving the problem of reliable emergency response.
- Molded from high impact linear low density polyethylene for extreme durability and resistance to harsh weather and UV exposure.
- The 30-inch diameter and white color ensure maximum visibility and ease of deployment during high-stress, time-sensitive emergency situations.
- Provides a minimum of 16.5 lbs. of buoyancy to effectively support an adult in the water, enhancing immediate safety after an accidental fall overboard.
This ring buoy is best suited for commercial vessels, large yachts, offshore platforms, and any marine operation required to meet U.S. Coast Guard standards for throwable flotation devices.
This 30-inch device is U.S. Coast Guard Approved and is most similar to the functionality of a Stearns Type IV Ring Buoy (e.g., I030). If you are looking for a Stearns vest alternative, consider the Stearns I223 (The Force II) work vest.
