Bombora Type V Inflatable Belt Pack - Rad

The Bombora Type V Inflatable Belt Pack – Rad is a United States Coast Guard approved personal flotation device engineered for boaters and anglers who refuse to sacrifice mobility for safety. Weighing just 2 pounds and measuring a compact 5 x 3 x 16 inches, this inflatable belt pack delivers Type III performance in a form factor that stays out of your way during active water use. Whether you're casting from a kayak, working a jetboat, or spending long hours on deck, this PFD prioritizes freedom of movement without compromising the buoyancy and compliance required by federal regulation.

Built around a 16-gram inflation chamber, the Bombora design combines passive flotation with active inflation capability, providing redundancy that serious water users depend on. The belt-pack configuration distributes buoyancy at the waist, positioning flotation where it's needed most while keeping your shoulders, arms, and chest unrestricted—critical for anglers working rods, net handlers, and deck crew executing line work or boat operations. The inflation system deploys quickly when needed, and the compact profile stows easily in a dry bag or secured to your belt when conditions are calm, making it ideal for variable conditions where you transition between high and low activity levels.

This PFD is purpose-built for serious anglers, commercial boat operators, and recreational boaters who spend significant time on open water in moderate to rough conditions. The Type V inflatable belt pack must be worn to meet Coast Guard regulations, making it the legal choice for anyone subject to PFD carriage requirements. Its compact, low-profile design makes it suitable for all vessel types—from center consoles and bay boats to kayaks and pontoons—wherever active water use demands both safety and performance without bulk.
