A Life Jacket or Personal Floatation Device (PFD) will be the most important safety item you will buy. REMEMBER “it is your life on the line” The Fact is that it is becoming mandatory to be wearing a lifejacket on a vessel while underway. This requires a great change in our attitude to lifejackets, or to use the latest term, Personal Flotation Devices.
The rash of drowning each summer from boating accidents has finally triggered the Coronial Service into pushing the Government to address the situation. “I can hear boaties all over throwing their arms in horror at the thought of having to wear a PFD all the time. We all had this same attitude when the wearing of seatbelts in motor cars was made compulsory “there was no way I was going to buckle up every time I hopped into the car” Well look at us now, it is just second nature and no bid deal.
