General Guidelines:
•Have one Coast Guard approved life preserver on the boat for every boater.
•One’s life jacket should be appropriate for their height and weight.
•It is a good idea to have a PFD with a waterproof whistle attached.
Safety:
•Always check the buoyancy of a PFD before going out into deep water.
•The common life jackets, type III’s, are intended for recreation and will keep a conscious person afloat.
