Combinaison de survie mer, combinaison de survie bateau

Sea survival suits, also known as boat survival suits, are used in emergency situations, such as after a shipwreck or to reach a life raft. They are an essential piece of equipment for skippers, fishermen and yachtsmen on the high seas. The boat survival suit enables anyone in distress at sea to effectively combat hypothermia, even in cold waters. The thick neoprene of a survival suit helps the body preserve the calories it needs to resist the cold and damp, even for several hours while waiting for the rescue services to arrive. In this way, you retain the energy you need to cope with your distress situation.

SEA SURVIVAL SUIT ON NAUTISPORTS

A sea survival suit is generally delivered in a waterproof bag or small container. In addition to its insulating properties, a boat survival suit can also provide buoyancy equivalent to that of a lifejacket, as with the Solas 4Water wetsuit. Our survival suits are also SOLAS-certified, to guarantee maximum safety in case of danger on the open sea. The Solas Plastimo survival suit is a TPS sea survival suit, available in two sizes, designed primarily for professional use. Also Solas-certified, the Neptune Lalizas survival suit offers the best quality/price ratio on the market. The Neptune Lalizas survival suit is made from 5mm-thick neoprene for added resistance to the risk of hypothermia. There are also dry suits, generally dedicated to deep-sea navigation, which take up some of the features of sea survival suits, as with the Musto HPX Ocean DrySuit which allows you to stay in water at 5 degrees for several hours.

As a reminder, wetsuits need to be inspected every 3 years to ensure they are in good working order. Failure to do so means running an additional risk when you need them most at sea. A wetsuit is an important piece of safety equipment to consider when outfitting your boat, especially if you're planning to sail on the high seas.
