The Coastman

Information

The Coastman was designed to reduce the number of injuries and deaths that occur on our coast lines every year. The Coastman offers the fisherman high levels of buoyancy and protection from rocks and debris and also provides storage for multiple days of fishing. The quick release system allows the user to detach from a heavy bag and swim to safety in sticky situations.
I am a Industrial designer that is passionate about all things out doors and helping people to experience the things I do on a regular basis. My designs aim to improve the outdoor experience for any users.
