Join us for a drink and a RANSA Tech Talk on Wednesday, September 13th at 6PM around lifejacket servicing and care ready for the Summer racing season! Favourite tech-talker Dave Giddings will cover the following:
- Reason and rationale for annual testing and checking of lifejackets including PFDs 1,2&3 and differences and application for each
- Equipment required for servicing Inflatable PFDs
- Inspection and stowage of PFDs
- Inspection and servicing of Inflatable PFDs
- Physical servicing of a PFD by attendees
Bring your PFD that's in need of a service and your Service Checklist - you'll leave with knowledge and a fully serviced life jacket ready for CAT7.
Service Checklist can be obtained from the manufacturer's website - here's an example from Marlin: https://www.marlin-australia.com.au/servicing?lightbox=dataItem-klluifo04. If your manufacturer doesn't provide one, a few generic forms will be on hand.
