A personal flotation device (PFD; also referred to as a life jacket, life preserver, life belt, Mae West, life vest, life saver, cork jacket, buoyancy aid or flotation suit) is a flotation device in the form of a vest or suite that is worn by a user to prevent the wearer from drowning in a body of water.

The terms PFD, lifejacket, life vest, life preserver, buoyancy vest and buoyancy aid are used interchangeably for the same item, all with the same key purpose; to prevent persons drowning. A PFD is a garment designed to keep a conscious person afloat and to assist with buoyancy in the water.

What is the difference between Type 2 and Type 3 life vest?

A Type II PFD is an approved device designed to turn an unconscious person in the water from a face downward position to a vertical or slightly backward position, and to have more than 15.5 pounds of buoyancy. A Type III PFD is an approved device designed to have more than 15.5 pounds of buoyancy.

What is the difference between level 50 and 100 life jacket?

Level 50 lifejackets provide less buoyancy than the Level 100 Plus jackets. They are not designed to turn the wearer onto their back, but they will keep the person afloat and have high visibility features.


What color life vest is best?

It is best to choose a life jacket that uses plastic buckles instead of metal, so that they won't rust or corrode. Color is important for easy spotting in a rescue situation. Bright colors such as red, orange and yellow work best.


How many years is a life vest good for?

The maximum lifespan of a foam-filled lifejacket or buoyancy aid for leisure boating is ten years. This type of product is all but maintenance free, however an annual visual inspection is recommended.


How do I know what life jacket to buy?

Choose a jacket that best suits your type of angling. If you are wading, high-cut jackets are better. If you cast a lot, choose something less bulky. Flotation suits and vests will protect from the cold and can offer buoyancy in addition to your lifejacket.


How Long Can You Float With A Life Vest Jacket? If you do not panic and stay calm, you can survive and keep floating with a life vest jacket for at least three days.
