The Venture Plus Mens Life Jacket, part of Jetpilot's Venture adventure line, built for fishing, touring and long days out — a life jacket built for Australian water, by the crew that has kept riders afloat since 1986.

The shell is Jetpilot's Ecoprene — a more environmentally considered take on neoprene that keeps the same stretch and durability. Inside, Freelite bevelled-edge buoyancy foam keeps the profile low and the flex high — flotation that works with your body rather than boxing it in. Zips are the failure point on cheap gear, so this one runs premium hardware that survives salt, sand and years of yanking. Reflective detailing adds dusk-and-dawn visibility around the water. Quick, positive buckles make it easy on, easy off, and secure everywhere between. Grab handles are placed where you actually need them — for hauling, docking and dragging kit up the beach. The rest of the build sheet reads: flex lite ultra neoprene, POV Camera Mount, 1 x ipx8 waterproof pocket protection for your smartphone/car keys 1m for 30mins, 1 x quick access pocket, and new back stash mesh pocket storage — plus a longer list of storage and mounting extras than fits in a paragraph — every line of it there because riders asked for it.

Built for boaters and fishos who wear their vest all day, not just when the water gets rough. Comfort is the whole game — a life jacket only works if it's actually on — and this one is cut to disappear while you fish, cruise or tour, then do its job the moment it matters.

The Black colourway does what black does best — goes with everything and hides a big day. Sizes run from S through 4XL. If Black isn't your pick, the Venture Plus Mens Life Jacket also comes in Red and Yellow. Part of the Jetpilot Summer 26 watersports range — Australian-designed life jackets trusted on local waterways for nearly four decades.

The Fit

Venture Plus Eco Vest

The Venture Plus Eco Vest is designed to feel snug when dry - and that’s exactly how it should be. Once you’re on the water, the Flex Lite Ultra Neoprene and Ecoprene panels flex and settle in, giving you lasting comfort without compromising security.

The Adjustable Internal Compression Belt ensures your vest stays locked in place, preventing ride-up when you’re leaning into turns, casting lines, or navigating choppy conditions. Combined with Freelite Buoyancy Foam, it delivers a fit that feels natural, secure, and ready for all-day adventure.

Tight Fit = Safe Fit

Your vest should feel tight when dry - that’s on purpose. It’ll stretch once it’s wet, and a loose fit around the shoulders can ride up or even slip off when you hit the water.

Tested. Trusted. Australian Certified.

Jetpilot Life Jackets are certified to Australian Standard AS 4758 - built to keep you safe, legal, and locked in for any ride on Aussie waters.

Waterway Type:

Smooth/Enclosed - L50 required & L50s allowed - L50S for watersports & L50 for general boating.
Partially Smooth - L50 only
Open Waters - L50 for PWC in some states; L100+ otherwise

*Check your state’s regulations for PWC use in open waters.

Important Reminders

Life jackets must meet Australian Standard AS 4758 or equivalent.
Wearing a life jacket is compulsory in many situations, including when boating alone, at night, or with children under 12 in small boats.
Always check your state or territory’s specific regulations before heading out, as rules can differ.

Failure to comply with these rules can result in fines and, more importantly, increased risk on the water. Always ensure your life jacket is the right type for your activity and waterway.

Not the Right Fit? No Stress

We’ve got your back. If your new Jetpilot gear doesn’t fit right, isn’t what you expected, or turns up faulty, no stress - you can send it back or swap it out. You’ve got 21 days from purchase to return it, and we’ll sort you with a refund or exchange.

Water Tight

IPX8 Waterproof Fidlock® Pocket

What Hits Different

Cory Teunissen Signature Series Jetpilot life jacket label showing AS4758.1 Level 50S approval

Certified Where It Counts

Every Jetpilot vest meets Australian Standard AS 4758, so you know it’s been tested tough and built to perform when it matters most.

We’ve also engineered vests that meet ISO and CGA certifications for our international riders - same Jetpilot quality, trusted worldwide.

Because safety isn’t optional - it’s part of the design.

Hold Tight. Then Hide It.

Jetpilot’s world-first patented Hidden Supergrip handles are designed for real-world versatility. When you're carrying a passenger on your PWC, they’ve got a solid, safe place to hang on. No slipping, no awkward grabs - just grip and go.

But when you're out solo or switching it up for wakeboarding or wakesurfing, those same handles zip away cleanly into the vest. No flapping, no drag, and nothing to get caught while you're riding. One vest, multiple uses - no compromise on performance or safety.

Jetpilot Australia | AdventureFeatures Black

Adventure-Ready Storage & Features

This vest is packed for adventure. A POV camera mount to catch the action. Multiple D-rings and loops for tools or gear. A hydration pack pocket to keep you fuelled all day. Every detail is designed to help you go further and do more on the water.

Comfortable but
Tight, when I held it next to my other XL life jacket this was more like a large so it is quite snug. Other than that, worn it once - nice & light, and the love/ grab handles are great!

Seadoo Life Jacket
The jacket is good for offshore fishing. I caution re sizing as I’m normally an XL but needed a 3XL in this jacket. Would love to see a spot that really accommodates a PLB holder, hand held radio clip and radio. It’s best on market though I think
