BackTow™ technology for superior safety and comfort at sea. Award-winning British-designed lifejackets.
Why TeamO and what is Back Tow Technology?
TeamO Marine designs and manufactures award-winning lifejackets for sailors and maritime professionals. Their flagship product is the patented BackTow™ lifejacket - the only lifejacket on the market with a moveable harness point.
The BackTow™ technology solves a critical safety issue: if a sailor falls overboard while clipped to their vessel, a TeamO lifejacket keeps them face-up in the water. All other lifejacket harnesses will tow the wearer face-down, creating a potentially fatal situation.
Founded in 2013 by siblings Oscar and Lauren Mead following accidents and fatalities in the marine industry, TeamO is a British company based in Southampton, UK. All products are designed and manufactured in their own UK facility.
The range includes models for offshore racing, coastal cruising, and inshore sailing, with options for automatic and manual inflation. TeamO lifejackets feature ultra-light construction (the Micro model weighs just 0.4kg), superior comfort with collars that sit back off the neck, and compatibility with safety accessories including spray hoods, lights, whistles, and safety tethers.
TeamO products are ISO certified and distributed worldwide, trusted by professional sailors and racing crews in events including the Sydney Hobart and Middle Sea Race.
