EP 60: Safety Talk: LifeSling Refit & Installation - Sailboat Safety Equipment

Well I had a little side project so I figure I do a video about it. In evaluating safety equipment, Reverie came with a LifeSling, if you do not what it is, it is a safety device that consists of a floatation device and a line. You use it in emergency situations when you have to recover a man overboard. Well back to Reverie, it had a LifeSling, but the bag was a complete disaster. In most instances people just throw the whole thing away and buy a new one; but when you are on a budget a $300 lifesaving is a little expensive, so in looking for options, I was able to find a good compromise to bring this safety piece of equipment back into service. Hope you enjoy this update. 00:00 Intro 00:37 LifeSling - What is it? 00:58 The Nasty Bag 01:21 The New Bag 01:51.
