HUGE FLOTATION BASE - 12" high x 30" diameter size assures upright flotation under severe conditions!
2" WIDE ALUMINUM BAND - Protects base of buoy from jet-skis and boat crashes (optional).
CJ-37 ROCK HARD OUTER SHELL - Resists the hardest blows - almost indestructible!
YOUR CHOICE OF VINYL DECALS/DAYMARKS - Available in a multitude of shapes and daymarks and guaranteed a full 5 years!
Jim Buoy's all new Sombrero Buoy is designed to be used where maximum stability and buoy strength are of prime importance. With the addition of the 2" wide aluminum protection band (optional) on the top edge of the jumbo flotation base, the Sombrero Buoy can withstand jet-skis and boat crashes that might otherwise permanently damage or tip over a standard buoy.
In addition to positive, upright flotation, the large 12" high x 30" diameter base provides greater visibility because it naturally floats higher in the water! A galvanized external ballast may be ordered for some models - other ballast are internal, however (some weights may be necessary to add to the chains if a shallow condition exists).
All colors are impregnated and molded into the tough CJ-37 Rock Hard outer shell for years of rugged maintenance free service. Eye bolts and metal components are galvanized steel for greater strength and resistance to rust and corrosion.HUGE FLOTATION BASE - 12" high x 30" diameter size assures upright flotation under severe conditions!

Lifevest Safety Tips
It is important to test a PFD in shallow water or a guarded swimming pool to make sure it fits appropriately and is in proper working order.
Be sure to always check the condition of your life jacket(s) before heading out for any watersport activity. When boating, make sure you always have enough life jackets on board for every passenger.
To keep water out of the vest, a bottom drain or mesh drainage is usually provided
The size of life vest you buy depends on your weight and size(See Sizing Chart)
Always keep your vest in a place you can access in a reasonable amount of time in an emergency (vessel sinking, on fire, etc.).
Life Jackets should not be stowed in plastic bags, in locked or closed compartments or have other gear stowed on top of them.
Children should wear life jackets at all times when on boats or near bodies of water.
Teach your child how to put on his or her own life jacket.
Teach your child how to put on his or her own life jacket.
Make sure the life jacket is the right size for your child. The jacket should not be loose. It should always be worn as instructed with all straps belted.
Adults should wear life jackets for their own protection and to set a good example.
