🔍 Key Concepts

• 46 CFR Subchapter C – Uninspected Vessels requirements for personal flotation devices (PFDs) • Difference between Type I, II, III, and IV PFDs (life preservers vs. cushions vs. vests) • Which devices are Coast Guard–approved primary lifesaving appliances vs. auxiliary or special-purpose gear

💭 Think About

• For a 150-foot uninspected towboat, are you looking for the main required personal lifesaving equipment, or optional/supplemental devices? • Does a buoyant cushion count as a wearable lifejacket, or is it a throwable device? How does that affect its use as a primary lifesaving device? • What exactly is meant by a "special purpose safety device" in the regulations—is that a standard PFD type, or something else?

✅ Before You Answer

• Check which PFD types are explicitly required for crewmembers on uninspected towing vessels of this size in 46 CFR • Verify whether buoyant cushions are accepted as substitutes for wearable PFDs on such vessels • Confirm if "special purpose safety devices" are formally recognized USCG-approved PFD categories for meeting carriage requirements
