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.
Type V Hybrid PFD: Inflatable design for special
use activities and may be used instead of a Type I,
II, or III PFD if used in accordance with the approval
conditions on the label and if worn when the boat is
underway. Some Type V PFDs provide increased
protection against hypothermia.
PFDs are intended to help save lives. The operator
should set an example by wearing 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.
Audible/Visual Distress Signals
A distress call is transmitted on VHF/FM radio
channel 16 (156.800 MHz) or 2182 kHz (SSB).
Know your audible signals:
• For emergency, the call sign is “Mayday.”
• For an urgent situation, the call sign is
“Pan-Pan.”
• For navigational safety and weather warnings,
the call sign is “Security.”
Repeat the call sign three times. Immediately react
to a distress call. Assist, if possible, using an
emergency frequency. Otherwise, continue to
monitor the situation until help has arrived.
NOTICE:
• 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.
