So my crewsaver auto pfd decided to do a self test, I heard a horrible compressed air noise in the shed the other day, thinking it was the air compressor doing its thing, no wasn't that nor was it one of those garden sprayer things getting hot in the "hot for melbourne" days we've had recently, it was my auto life jacket, dont know if it was the heat inside the shed were the boat lives or moisture? anyway my son just discovered it today when he went to get stuff out of the boat.
It passed the inflation +12 hour test easily the clever thing, so now Ive been looking for the rearm kit, not easy to find and get right now.
Just as a side note, my stubborn son who doesn't always wear his pfd on his less than 4.8 meter boat, received a "day before xmas water police fine" for not donning his pfd, to the tune of >$360.00 aud
