The Ultimate Guide to Choosing Survival Life Jackets for Inflatable Boats
When it comes to ensuring safety on the water, every inflatable boat owner must prioritize having reliable survival life jackets on board. Life jackets, or Personal Flotation Devices (PFDs), are crucial in keeping you afloat during emergencies until help arrives. To make the best choice for your inflatable sailboat, it’s essential to understand the different types of life jackets available.
Offshore Life Jackets
If you frequently sail in the ocean, an offshore life jacket is a must-have. Designed for rough waters, these jackets provide superior buoyancy and can keep you afloat even if you lose consciousness during an accident. With 22 pounds of buoyancy, they are ideal for remote areas where assistance may take time to reach you.
Near Shore Survival Jackets
The classic life jacket for adults and children is the near shore survival jacket. Less bulky than offshore versions, these are intended for inshore waters where rescue is nearby. They provide adequate protection for short-term water exposure.
Flotation Aids
For those seeking comfort during recreational activities, flotation aids are a popular choice. While not specifically designed as survival jackets, they offer buoyancy and safety. However, unlike offshore or near shore jackets, they do not turn an unconscious person face-up in the water.
Key Takeaways
1. Understand Different Types: Knowing the various designs helps in choosing the right life jacket for your boating needs.
2. Family Safety: Ensure each family member has a suitable PFD when sailing together.
3. Comfort and Certification: Modern life jackets are more comfortable and less bulky. Always ensure your life jackets are certified by the Coast Guard.
Choose the best survival gear for your inflatable boat by focusing on the specific needs and conditions you might encounter. Safety on the water starts with the right equipment.
