First Watch AC-1100 Flotation Coat - Red/Black - 3XL

The First Watch AC-1100 Flotation Coat in Red/Black, Size 3XL, combines active thermal protection with integrated life-saving flotation for serious mariners working on deck in harsh conditions. Designed for commercial fishermen, offshore anglers, and professional boat operators, this coat proves its worth when cold water, wind, and rough seas demand both warmth and reliable buoyancy support.

The AC-1100 features supersoft flotation material that provides consistent buoyancy in emergency situations without the bulk and rigidity of older foam designs. The red and black colorway maximizes visibility on the water—critical for both safety and crew coordination during low-light operations or heavy weather. At 5.5 lbs and sized for 3XL frames, this coat maintains mobility while offering the coverage and flotation capacity that extended time on deck demands. The garment is engineered to layer effectively over base layers and thermal wear, allowing anglers and deckhands to adjust insulation without sacrificing flotation integrity.

This is the choice for weekend fishermen who want insurance they can wear, and for professional offshore operators who cannot afford to compromise on safety. The AC-1100 addresses a simple reality: conditions deteriorate fast on the water, and a coat that provides both active warmth and passive flotation eliminates the need to choose between thermal comfort and survival readiness. Whether you're running a charter boat, working a commercial deck, or spending long hours in an open boat pursuing stripers, tuna, or grouper, integrated flotation worn as your everyday coat layer provides peace of mind without requiring additional bulk or special donning procedures.
