Seago LJ recall includes Mailspeed Charter Lifejackets

[RobBrown]

I have just spotted a recall notice on the Mailspeed site that states their Charter lifejackets are subject to the same recall as the Seago jackets- presumably same LJ but rebranded.

Glad I saw it as I have 2 Charter LJs purchased in 2006 and until now had no idea they were potentially subject to the Seago recall. All other details are the same- so affected date of manuf batches IV/05, I/06-IV/06 &I/07 inclusive, returns to Seago Yachting@ Hailsham.

Posted this on the earlier Seago recall thread, but on reflection thought it was worth a separate post, for information.

Incidentally, slightly at odds with the Seago thread, the Mailspeed recall states that jackets (which should be sent without the cylinder) will be returned if checked & OK & only faulty LJs replaced.

See my post on the other thread - I was told the same re replacements, however this was then contradicted by the recall manager later.

Sent my jackets back for inspection, returned to me saying they were pressure tested and safe, now have just received two brand new jackets with crutch straps and instructions to destroy the original jackets
