Teachers guides and coloring books. Photos of Coast Guard Ships to download. | | | Life Jackets
Boat smart from the start and wear it! There are many new types of life jackets, designed for all types of boats and boaters. For everyday boating wear, you just can’t beat the new, inflatable life jackets. They’re cool, comfortable, light weight, don’t restrict movement and have the same buoyancy support as the bulky “gold-standard”, Type I offshore vests. Triggered by either a manual pull-cord or an automatic sensor, a gas cartridge quickly inflates the vest while in the water. They are made by several manufacturers and are available in adult and children’s sizes. | | | | | | | | | |
