Coast Guard Says
Make Certain Of
Equipment
M ake c e rta in th a t th e life per-
servers you buy for y o u r boat will
keep you safely aflo a t when it’s
needed: see th a t it b ea rs th e
approval stam p of th e U nited
S ta tes C oast G uard.
A federal law specifically sta te s
tjiat a m o to rb o at o p e ra to r m ust
have approvedd
life-preservers,
cushions, o r rin g s on his boat —
one for every person aboard —
however, non-approved e q u i p -
m ent is sold a t m any sto res as
th ere is no fed eral law to p re
vent such sales.
This o ften re s u lts in needless
and expensive duplication on a

craft w ith non-approved equip
m ent he still will be required to
equip his boat w ith the required
num ber ot approved life-saving
devices when operating lus boat
on federal navigable w aters.
To be approved by the Coast
G uard life-saving devices m u st
undergo extensive tests. F a c to r
ies w here they are m ade m ust be
inspected at unanounced intervals
to insure that specifications are
m aintained. Because of this e x
trem e care th a t is given in sup
ervision of the m an u fa ctu re of
approved equipm ent the su p e r
ior quality of equipm ent such as
buoyant cushion^ are usually
easily recognized even w ithout
looking tor the approval stam p
they bear
In addition the buoyant m a l e -
ial in an
approved cushion is
known to be safe, while in th e
non-approved it is questionable.
This is im portant and som e
thing to be kept in m ind when
o u tfittin g your boat o r check
ing over its equipm ent. In the
rush for em ergency a t sea th ere
is no tim e to m ake su re th e life
p reserv er or cushion you grab is
safe. This should be determ ined
when you m ake th e purchase.
