What should I look for when buying yacht safety equipment?

Lalizas Inflatable Lifejackets - Alpha 170N ISO - Adult (Auto)

On a mid-size 30–45 ft cruiser, "safety gear" isn't one purchase — it's five separate systems, each solving a different failure mode, from a crew member going overboard to a fire, a hull breach, or simply not being seen by a ship at night. MAURIPRO Sailing stocks Lalizas and Revere and McMurdo yacht safety equipment options, listed in Sailing marine safety.
