One of the most important things to protect you on a boat is a PFD (Personal Floatation Device). In this video, Brian Latimer, Professional Angler, walks us through the importance of wearing a lifejacket (even if not required by law), the different types of life jackets and how to select the one that is best for you.
PFD requirements vary by location so please make sure you check you familiarize yourself with local laws before launching your boat or leaving the dock.
