SAFE BOATING

Life Jackets

 Simply wearing a life jacket dramatically reduces a person's risk of drowning, should a boating mishap occur. Wearing a life jacket should be as second nature as placing a child in a car seat, or putting on your seat belt when riding in a car.  It is a small action that greatly increases your chances of surviving an unexpected fall into the water.  The next time you go boating, remember your life jacket doesn't help if it's not on you.  Don't just pack it - WEAR your life jacket.
