Life Jackets & Flotation

A great selection of life jackets for all types of water recreation

When you’re heading out for a day on the water, be it for fishing, kayaking, waterskiing or just cruising, a life jacket (or PFD) is a must. At Savvyboater.com, we carry a wide variety of life jackets and flotation options for all types of water activities. You can choose from fishing/watersport, ski, industrial/commercial and inflatable life vests in various sizes and US Coast Guard ratings, as well as flotation suits, pants, coats and flotation boat seat cushions.

Check out the convenient category headings below to quickly find the PFD that meets your specific requirements. For additional information on how to select the proper life jacket, and on US Coast Guard ratings, see our Life Jacket Resource Articles.

Remember, a life jacket can save your life – but only if you wear it!

Choosing the Right Life Jackets

Safety First

Life jackets are a must for all types and levels of watersport activities. No one plans to have an accident. And the most common mistake is to think that strong swimmers don't need to wear life jackets. However, even strong swimmers who are injured or unconscious can drown. Nine out of 10 drownings occur in inland waters, most within a few feet of safety and involving boats less than 20 feet long. Most drowning victims had access to life jackets, but did not wear one. Life jackets can save your life – but only if you wear it!

Life Jacket Types

Life jackets are categorized by Type in accordance with U.S. Coast Guard regulations, i.e. Type I, II, III, IV or V. Read our article on U.S. Coast Guard Life Jacket Ratings for a detailed explanation of the different types of life jackets and their intended uses. While there is no such thing as perfect life jackets, the ideal life jackets are ones that you will wear. It should be comfortable, provide a secure fit, and offer maximum freedom of movement.
