This out of date manual lifejacket needed replacing, so I thought I would see what happens when you pull the ripcord, as I have never done this for real before

http://features.boats.com/boat-content/2013/09/ahqua2o-mini-sub-the-ultimate-play-toy For more boat videos, visit www.boats.com. We were walking along at the boat show in Cannes, France, minding our own business, when the aHqua2O mini-sub stopped us in our tracks. Qu'est que c'est? We've seen mini-subs intended for the recreational marine market pop up before, but never one quite like this. Naturally, we had to get it all down on film. The aHqua2O by Sea Warriors set itself apart from those other uber-expensive undersea playthings in a number of ways. But before we get to that stuff, let's make one thing clear right off the bat. Although it isn't exactly cheap, this is one of the most reasonably-priced recreational submarines we've ever encountered, with an MSRP of about $170,000. Heck, that's not much more than some of the tenders it might displace. So let's dream for a bit, shall we? The aHqua2O designed specifically to fit in the garages of most yachts that can accommodate tenders and/or other water-toys, like PWCs or small jet boats. LOA is 13'0" and beam is 10'2" Or, it can be 7'10", because one of the key features is a pair of folding stabilizer wings which swing down for storage. The sub's height is 5'7".

#sailinglife #marriagesavers #headset #hollyland #shorts #marineheadset #outdoorlife #walkietalkies #boatlife #Hollylandtech #communication #fijiisland #fijiwater #shorts Recently we went to the aid of a sailboat that had hit a reef in Fiji because the spotter didn't warn the helm in time about the coral reef up ahead. Fast communication between the spotter and helm is essential to navigate the dubiously chartered coral reefs and bommie fields of Fiji and we've often envied crew on other boats who manage to do this without shouting at eachother down the length of the boat! Someone at @hollylandtech obviously noticed our lack of effective communication and sent us some cool Solidcom C1 Pro headsets to try out.. and boy have they made a difference We turn down 90% of free products offered for us by brands to 'try out' because.. well, we know we just won't use them, but these headsets have been an absolute Godsend, so thanks to the guys at @Hollylandtech
