Isn't there some rule that requires a throw able on board as well?
Would that be this subsection of the CG regulation?:
(b) No person may use a recreational vessel 16 feet or more in length unless one Type IV PFD is on board in addition to the total number of PFDs required in paragraph (a) of this section.
I always found this one kinda humerous. It makes sense in the possibility of having to "rescue" someone else, but if I'm singlehanded, who the hell is going to throw it to me? I don't know if this is a state thing, or what, but the way its worded in the Minnesota handbook I'm required to carry a functioning fire extinguisher as well. I don't think any water patrol would write a ticket, or any judge would let it stick, but......
I don't know Karl, you were smokin' in the pics i saw on your new V-rocket
