Light Vest

Summary:
In the commercial marine industry the deckhand on the vessell works at night carrying a flashlight and other needed tools, my idea would free up their hands and provide a lighted area.

Full Description:
I have worked in this industry for 32 years and there is a need for this type of safety product. It takes the basic life vest which comes in many different styles and incorporates a light bar on each side of the vest projecting light forward to light up a 3 foot area in front of the deckhand. With this idea he does not have to always hold a flashlight (narrow beam of light) and it frees up the hands in case of fall. If the person would happen to go overboard it would act as a beacon to locate the person in the water.
