This 43-liter grey Optimist buoyancy bag is made from durable polyurethane-coated nylon, offering half the weight and increased strength compared to PVC or PVC-coated bags. It features a regular PVC non-return valve for quick and easy inflation and deflation. The 43-liter capacity is ideal for reducing water in the boat after a capsize, making it slightly lighter than the 48-liter version. Proper inflation ensures the bag is soft to the touch, providing safety without overinflation risks.
