This Sam Allen V Sheet Orange With Black 'V' spreads out to 1.8 m by 1.2 m so your crew can throw up a clear distress signal from a tinny or PWC. The bright orange field stands out hard against grey swell and sky while the big black V covers most of the centre panel. The sheet folds down small enough for a side pocket so it stays in the kit instead of cluttering the deck. The gear runs a PVC body with a fixed 1.8 m by 1.2 m size so skippers know exactly how much coverage they get when they tie it off. Built-in rope lanyards sit on the edges so you can lash it to rails or rigging without hunting for extra clips. Part number 50236 keeps it simple when you want the same setup across multiple boats.

Q: Is this V sheet suitable for use on personal watercraft as well as boats?

Yes, this V sheet is suitable for both registered boats and personal watercraft. The sheet opens to 1.8 x 1.2 metres so it is large enough to be seen from a distance even when used from a low-profile PWC. The orange PVC and black V offer strong contrast against water. The included rope lanyards make it simple to secure to different craft layouts.

Q: How should I store the V sheet on my boat when not in use?

You can store the V sheet folded in a dry, easily accessible locker or side pocket. The PVC sheet folds compact so it will fit into small storage spaces commonly found on runabouts and PWCs. Keeping it dry between trips will help the material and print last longer. Stowing it near other safety gear means crew can find it quickly.

Q: Does the V sheet need any extra mounting hardware to use it?

No, the V sheet includes rope lanyards for attaching it. You can tie the lanyards to rails, cleats, or other solid points on your vessel. This avoids needing separate clips or poles. The flexible sheet can also be held by hand or spread across the deck if tie points are limited. Using the supplied ropes keeps the setup straightforward.

Q: What size area does the V sheet cover when deployed?

The V sheet covers an area of 1.8 metres by 1.2 metres when fully opened. This rectangular panel provides 2.16 square metres of signalling surface. The large black V spans a significant portion of this area to improve recognition. The set dimensions make it easy to plan where it can be displayed on your vessel.
