Type III PFD - Flotation Aid: These life jackets are generally
considered the most comfortable, with styles for different boating
activities and sports. They are for use in calm water where there is
good chance of fast rescue since they will generally not turn an
unconscious person face-up. Flotation aids come in many sizes and
styles.
Type IV Throwable Device: These are designed to be thrown to a
person in the water. Throwable devices include boat cushions, ring
buoys, and horseshoe buoys. They are not designed to be worn and
must be supplemented by wearable PFD. It is important to keep
these devices immediately available for emergencies.
Type V PFD - Special Use Device: Special use PFDs include
work vests, deck suits, and hybrids for restricted use. Hybrid vests
contain some internal buoyancy and are inflatable to provide
additional flotation. These PFDs may be used instead of a Type I, II,
or III PFD with non-towed participants 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.
A Type V PFD must be worn to be counted toward the
minimum carriage requirements.
Special lifejackets are available for skiing and other water
sports. These non-Coast Guard approved lifejackets do not
count as PFD’s.
Fire Extinguisher
A portable fire extinguisher is required if your boat
has an inboard engine, or when fuel is stored in closed
stowage compartments.
Approved fire extinguishers are classified by a letter
symbol, either B-I or B-II with the B designating that
the material will extinguish flammable liquids such as
gasoline, oil, etc. B-I extinguishers are required for boats less than 26 feet in length.
Check periodically to ensure that the extinguisher is in working condition and fully
charged. Check local, state and federal agencies as to laws and regulations.
