Optiparts EX1220 - Optimist PVC Buoyancy Bag 43L White – Flexible PVC, Non-Return Valve
Optiparts EX1220 is a buoyancy bag designed for Optimist sailboats and other compatible classes, providing essential flotation support and helping to maintain buoyancy after capsize.
Manufactured from high-quality flexible PVC, this bag offers a durable and practical solution for general sailing applications. It is suitable for use in non-IOD’95 Optimists and can be installed either inside GRP buoyancy tanks or secured with straps depending on the boat configuration.
The 43-liter capacity provides effective flotation while maintaining a manageable size and weight. The bag is equipped with a standard PVC non-return valve, ensuring reliable air retention and straightforward inflation.
For safe operation, the buoyancy bag should not be over-inflated. When properly filled, it should remain soft to the touch. Over-inflation combined with heat exposure may cause damage. Care should also be taken to avoid sharp objects inside the hull that could puncture the bag.
