PFD in a Bag

PERSONAL FLOATATION DEVICE FOR STAND UP PADDLE BOARDS The enforcement of this law began on May 1, 2011 with $250 violations being cited by Lifeguards.

The United States Coast Guard now classifies stand up paddle boards as a vessel as they do kayaks and canoes. Therefore this classification requires, by federal law, that each person must have a personal flotation devise (PFD) and safety whistle ‘on board’ while paddling outside surfing and swimming zones. The PFD in a Bag backpack is a simple, quick, easy and inexpensive way to adhere to this mandate.
