Life jackets

New Standard Life Jackets required on all boats in Tasmania in 2020.

Everyone who owns a life jacket must, by 1 January 2021, replace jackets labelled with the old Australian Standards numbers,  1512, 1499 and 2260. This Australian Standard was made redundant  in 2010 and will all be written out of legislation in the year 2020.

All life jackets in use on Tasmanian boats will need to adhere to the new standard AS4758.1 by 1 Jan 2021. MAST has “grandfathered “ the older styled jackets for 10 years.
