I have seen jackets painted with fabric paint to comply... they are not pretty looking. haha.

I believe for Canada, jackets just need the manufacturing date... they don't expire. The officials can say they don't look safe and even float test you in it. In USA the rules seem to change every few years... not sure what it is currently. To recertify it has to be shipped to a manufacturer.

If you are looking for a jacket that fits the tclass rules here is the rule on the jacket. Note the colour requirement. Sorry Thom...but good deal for a drag or lake running guy

(7-B) * Life Jackets*
Life Jackets must be designed for racing and have leg straps. They must be certified to type "A" or type "A-100" for racing and be bright yellow, red or orange in colour, orange being preferred. Jackets with impact material or a secondary jacket/vest with impact material are mandatory. Lifejackets must be worn by all persons on board at all times during the journey to and from the race course, during racing, practice and testing. Please note that these race jackets are not DOT or Coast Guard approved and you may require a secondary government approved PDF on board. Check local laws.

You can paint a lifejacket

Good info there.

I guess I was thinking about the Drag/Lake application for this.

Still a good price for someone who need a good jacket. A plain new one is over $500.00 from Lifeline.
