PFD Type II, Wearable, (Figure 2.2) turns its

wearer in the same way as Type I, but not as

effectively. The Type II will not turn as many per-

sons under the same conditions as a Type I.

PFD Type III, Wearable, (Figure 2.3) allows the

wearers to place themselves in a vertical or

slightly backward position. It has the same

buoyancy as a Type II PFD. It has little or no

turning ability.

PFD Type IV, Throwable, (Figure 2.4) can be

thrown to a person in the water, grasped and

held by the user until rescued. The most com-

mon Type IV PFDs are a buoyant cushion or ring

buoy. The throwable Type IV PFD should be

immediately available for use and always in ser-

viceable condition. This PFD is required in addi-

tion to the PFDs previously discussed.

PFD Type V, Wearable, (Figure 2.5) must be

worn to be effective. When inflated, it provides

buoyancy equivalent to Type I, II or III PFDs.

When it is deflated, however, it may not support

some people.
