Which of these approved lifesaving devices must a small passenger vessel carrying passengers for hire carry for each person on board? (small passenger vessel regulations)
• Small Passenger Vessel regulations in 46 CFR Subchapter T (vessels <100 gross tons carrying passengers for hire) • The difference between wearable PFDs (Personal Flotation Devices) and throwable PFDs • USCG Type I, II, III, IV, V approval categories and which are required "for each person on board"
• Which of these devices is designed to be worn by an individual during an emergency, rather than just thrown to them? • In small passenger vessel rules, when the regulation says "one for each person on board," is it talking about a wearable device or a throwable device? • Look at which of the options are typically used as the vessel’s primary personal lifesaving equipment for passengers on inspected small passenger vessels.
• Verify in 46 CFR Subchapter T that the required item "for each person" is a USCG-approved wearable PFD, not just any buoyant object. • Check which of the answer choices are primarily throwable devices versus wearable devices. • Confirm which device type is specifically required for passengers for hire on inspected small passenger vessels, not just for general recreational boating.
