Safety Tip of the Week

Life Jackets

More than two-thirds of all boating fatalities are drowning incidents and 90 percent of drowning victims were not wearing a life jacket.

Life jackets are the single most important piece of equipment on a boat and there must be a properly fitting life jacket for each and every person aboard a recreational vessel. You don’t want your life jacket too large or too small. A snug fit is a proper fit. Life jackets for adults do not work for children.

  1. Make sure the life jacket is properly fastened
  2. All straps, buckles or zippers are secure
  3. Hold your arms straight up over your head
  4. Ask a friend to grasp the tops of the arm openings and gently pull up

More life jacket tips.
