As with any water activity, it is strongly suggested that each person wear their Life Jacket (aka PFD or Personal Flotation Device) at ALL times. Being able to swim sufficiently (to save one's own life) may seem like justification to not wear one. Countless lives have been lost as a direct result of this type of "fallacy thinking". In addition, not many people are willing to admit that they never learned how to swim; being a member of a capsized boat is not a good time to find out a friend (or relative) cannot swim. Avoid such situations; a poor decision to not wear your PFD can result in loss of life (and not necessarily your own) - BE SAFE and BE SMART!
