The operator of the vessel is required to provide the following user

correctly, and that you understand how to inflate the device.

WHY ARE PFDS REQUIRED SAFETY EQUIPMENT?
Drownings are the leading cause of fatalities involving recreational and
commercial vessels. A PFD provides flotation to help keep your head
above water, help you to stay face up in the water, and increase your
chances for survival and rescue. Most adults only need an extra 7 to 12 lb
(3.2 to 5.5 kg) of flotation to keep their heads above water. The
proper size PFD will properly support the weight of the wearer.
Since this Inflatable PFD does not have inherent buoyancy, it provides
flotation only when inflated. Familiarize yourself with the use of this
Inflatable PFD so you know what to do in an emergency.
