• A Type V PFD must be worn to be counted toward the
minimum carriage requirements.
• Special PFDs are available for skiing and other water sports.
These PFDs are constructed with materials suitable for high
impact falls.
PFDs are intended to help save lives. The operator should set an
example by wearing one. Wear a PFD whenever boating. It is
especially important that children and non-swimmers wear a PFD at
all times. Make certain all passengers know how to put on and
properly adjust their PFDs. Also, selecting the proper type PFD for
your kind of outing helps ensure your time on the water can be the
safest possible.
At the beginning of each season, check PFDs for damage and test
for proper flotation. Refer to the PFD manufacturer's information.
All boats over 16 feet (4.8 meters) in length must carry one USCG
approved Type IV throwable lifesaving device, such as a ring buoy
or buoyant cushion. To meet requirements, each lifesaving device
must have a current, legible USCG approval stamp permanently
affixed.
Type IV Throwable Device: Intended for heavy traffic inland
waters where help is available. Designed to be thrown to a person
in the water and should never be worn.
Your Nautique dealer can help you select appropriate PFDs and
throwable lifesaving devices for your area.
