Model #SO-1 - Features Jim Buoy's remarkable new LIFE-SAVING design that enables an unconscious person to roll over, face-up, with their mouth more than 4 3/4" above the water in LESS THAN 5 SECONDS! Shipped complete with the unique Jim Buoy youth insert collar in place, the #SO-1 is then approved for children of 60 lbs. or more, yet easily converts for adult use in less than 15 seconds! In practical use, valuable space and cost savings become obvious as SOLAS and USCG requirements are greatly reduced from the present 10% child life preserver requirement to as low as 2-3% [representing children under 60 lbs.]. Of course the Jim Buoy #SO-2 or similar SOLAS-U.S.C.G. Life preserver is required for children under 60 lbs.
