HURRICANE EVO 160 | Professional Offshore Inflatable Elite Protection. Engineered for the Elements. The Hurricane Evo 160 is a premium safety solution for those who don't let the forecast dictate their day. Designed specifically for offshore navigation and adverse weather, this life jacket balances maximum buoyancy with an ergonomic, "wraparound" fit that stays comfortable during grueling maneuvers. Professional Grade Safety Certified to ISO 12402-3 (150N Class) with a true buoyancy of 160N, the Hurricane Evo is more than just a life jacket—it is a survival system. In the event of a fall overboard, the high-frequency welded chamber is engineered to turn an unconscious wearer face-up, keeping airways clear even in heavy chop. Distance-Ready: The automatic version meets all Italian regulatory requirements for offshore navigation with no distance limits from the coast. Integrated Safety Harness: Features a built-in ISO 12401 harness with a high-tensile HDPE polymer tether ring for secure clipping-on in rough seas. Precision Fit: The Oyster SDC 2020 safety buckle and side quick-adjuster allow you to tighten the vest perfectly over bulky foul-weather gear in seconds. The "Total Protection" Package Unlike many competitors, the Hurricane Evo 160 comes fully equipped as standard. There is no need to buy separate safety add-ons; it arrives pre-configured with: Sprayhood: To prevent water secondary drowning from wind-blown spray. Emergency Light: Water-activated for night-time rescue. Double Crotch Strap: For maximum stability and to prevent the jacket from riding up. Floating Knife: A critical tool for emergency tether release. Mesh Storage Bag: To allow the jacket to breathe and dry between uses.
