Good afternoon, checked SOLAS already, but vague as f\*#€k, but does anyone know if there is a regulation regarding the types of life jackets used inside free-fall lifeboats? I found a circ. for EU/Offshore that doesn’t allow 150N type… but that’s not a general rule I suppose…

Anyone has experience with this or info that might help? Much appreciated
