The Regatta Fisherman flotation suit is a modern alternative to the standard oilskin and has been designed in close consultation with over 300 commercial fishermen to ensure their requirements are met. This is the ultimate workwear for professional fishermen in all types of fisheries - coastal, deep sea or fish farms. It consists of a jacket and trousers made of windproof and waterproof outer material in PVC-coated polyester. The suit is soft, light weighted, comfortable and functional, designed mainly for professional use and the trousers have a built-in buoyancy for safety in a working environment. The buoyancy is not bulky or cumbersome - it is contained in the bibs (front and back) of the trousers and will cushion the wearer's chest and back against minor bumps and knocks. The PVC-coated polyester material is coated with an anti-oil coating to enable it to withstand hydrocarbon oils, fish-oils, etc.

Windproof and waterproof outer material.
Hood with peak and drawcord for adjustment.
Elbows are reinforced and tailored.
Storm-proof design of front opening with alternately located snap fasteners.
