The Marine Industry

6

•Existing law requires all marine craft carry one government-approved PFD for each person on board, including infants under 30 lbs. (Federal Regulation 33CFR175.15 )2

•Current USCG policy: Since there is no infant flotation device “The USCG does not recommend taking an infant under 18 lbs. onboard a recreational boat as current safety devices are not adequate.”3

Baby Life Seat will have USCG Certification

It will meet all existing legal requirements for mandatory infant personal flotation devices

Page 7: Bls power point 2012cf

The Marine Industry Over 75 million people, or 32.4% of the U.S. population,

were involved in leisure boating in the U.S in 20104

Approximately 13 million Baby Life Seats will be required the year it is introduced for registered boaters compliance

In 2001 the Cruise Line International Association reported that over 700,000 children sailed on cruise ships 5

The Airline Industry• 6 million infants under 16 months of age

enplane per year6

- Existing FAA regulations require “…life preservers in accordance with 121.339(a)(1) 7 or with an approved flotation means for each occupant.” 8

– Currently, there is no government certified protection for infants in the case of a water emergency9

air carriers in the U.S.10

• In 2005, a Pentagon report for the airline industry averaged infant enplanements at 1% of all passenger enplanements11

• 34,255 Baby Life Seats would be required to meet this need (@ 5 per aircraft)
