Topic SAFETY WARNING - Seago issue PFD recall Posted by OceanFroggie
Well done Seago Yachting who have just issued the following warnings and recall of specific batches of PFDs. The warnings effect 150 and 175 newton life jackets including junior ones. The warning shows how to indentify from batch numbers if you have an effected product. They give a delivery address for return and they will send a replacement. [www.seagoyachting.co.uk] If you have an affected PFD STOP USING IT IMMEDIATELY. See details in link above Affected Manufacture Dates as printed on inside of jackets: IV/05 I/06 II/06 III/06 IV/06 I/07 I'm glad to see a responsible company act in this manner. I know we have a few of these on board, especially two of our childrens PFDs.
...and well done to Ocean Froggie and this esteemed list...I heard it here first! I have two so affected PFD's (still at home for use on Mrs TNC Wildernii "trail" boat Mini Me). I have just foned Seago and they will refund postage, if you provide proof of cost, in covering letter.

Further to the issue re Seago lifejackets - Some other useful links are: a.. [www.iws.ie] for information on Personal Flotation Devices b.. [www.iws.ie] for information on other lifejackets and safety items that have been recalled. c.. our website [www.iwai.ie] for people contemplating buying a lifejacket/PFD d.. The Dept of Transport (RoI) Marine Notice #23 of 2007 remininding boat owners and users of the requirements and regulations around the use of Personal Flotation Devices (in the RoI). A copy of this document can be downloaded from [www.iwai.ie] e.. For those of you with Inflatable PDFs we strongly recommend you view:"Guidance on the use and periodic inspection of Inflatable PFD/Life jackets" which can be downloaded from [www.iwai.ie] Michael Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
