Description & Features
The NRS Big Water Guide PFD is made for guides and private boaters who need reliable flotation in big water. This Type III life jacket features a high-profile design with 22.9 lbs (95N) of buoyancy for added confidence in strong currents. PVC-free foam panels are contoured to fit the torso comfortably while allowing full mobility. The 400-denier ripstop nylon shell is durable, dries quickly, and holds its color through heavy use.
The Big Water Guide PFD includes fleece-lined handwarmer pockets, accessory attachment points, and a MOLLE field for customizing your setup. Eight adjustment points let you fine-tune the fit, and reflective SOLAS tape adds visibility in low light. Built for commercial guides, safety boaters, and anyone running challenging whitewater, it’s a dependable choice for demanding conditions.
