Recreational/Leisure Buoyancy Aids
Kayaking and canoeing buoyancy aids and lifejackets.
All buoyancy aids sold through Manchester Canoes meet CE and/or ISO approval, and providing they are the correct size for the wearer, and worn/fitted correctly then a budget buoyancy aid will fulfil its primary purpose- to keep the wearer afloat and on the surface in the event of a capsize.
