Summer Water Safety Tip:
How to Fit and Borrow a Child's Life Jacket
ALEXANDRIA, Va., March 16, 2009 - Summer will soon be here and for many
parents, this may be the first time your family goes boating. To make sure
everyone is ready, the non-profit BoatU.S.
Foundation for Boating Safety and Clean Waterhas three free online resources
at www.BoatUS.com/foundation/LJLP/fit_video
to make sure the kids are safe:
How to properly fit a kid's lifejacket: Having a child wear an adult or
incorrectly sized life jacket could be as dangerous as having no life jacket at
all, giving parents a false sense of security. A short online video explains how
to fit a right-sized life jacket to your child.
How to borrow a kid's life jacket if you don't have one: Boaters don't
always have every kid-sized life jacket aboard. However, the BoatU.S. Foundation
has over 500 locations across the country - local marinas, fire departments and
other waterfront businesses - where parents can borrow a kid's life jacket (in
various sizes) for the day or weekend, absolutely free. The Web site allows
parents to search for a Kid's Life Jacket Loaner location near them. The program
loaned out over 90,000 life jackets last year, and three lives have been saved
to date.
Know your state's life jacket laws: Confused about who needs a life
jacket? The Web site has a state-by-state listing of life jacket regulations.
