ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

If you need more information about PFDs and safe boating, contact your state boating authority, U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary, U.S. Power Squadron, Red Cross, or your nearest unit of the U.S. Coast Guard. To find out about free boating courses in your area call 1-800-336-BOAT (in Virginia, call 1-800-245-BOAT).

DO NOT ATTACH PFDs TO YOUR BOAT

Each PFD has straps, hooks, buckles, or other means for securing the device in place on the wearer. Some PFDs also incorporate decorative dee rings or tabs. Such items are not to be used to attach the device to the boat. Attaching the device to the boat will not permit it to perform as intended.

BUDDY LINE

The MA7636 Accessory Pouch contains a Buddy Line intended for use in two situations.

1)When more than one person is in the water, tie the Buddy Lines together to ensure that you do not drift apart. This makes it much more likely that a rescuer will be able to locate you.

2)When a person is in the water, the Buddy Line can be used to pull them into a position to be rescued i.e. closer to the side of a boat or to another location where the freeboard is lower and it will be easier to assist the person out of the water.

Warning: The Buddy Line is NOT FOR LIFTING.
