I think its 100.00 plus shipping. You can save if you drop off the jacket at a race where Bill has his trailer.

None of them are USCG approved, correct?

Ya, I don't get that. They are good enough to race in, but not USCG approved. Lisa at Lifeline, said, it was because the Coast Guard doesn't certify the balistic material they use in the vests.
Go figure...:(
