Re: Life Jacket For Kids Question
There's a large commercial boat exception that likely does not fit.
In NJ all kids 12 and under must wear while on open deck AND when underway. In NY it's age 11 and under.
Underway means free to move. SO if anchored no PFD required by LAW. Also they can not wear an inflatable PFD until age 16.
BEST PFD... let them pick it out. They will love to wear it then. Never fails on that method.
