Children, without question should be in jackets. All should wear one when in motion. Think about everyone else in your family and how they would feel if you were killed or seriously hurt. No different than seat belts!

Please quit trying to over protect people.

Only fish think life jackets are silly.

No, it should be your own choice! This is the home of the free-right?!?

If your driving a smaller boat I agree, However, someone wearing a lifejacket on a 21 or more foot boat really isn`t necessary. (In my opinion)

Makes sense, it is known to save lives.

We are over regulated already. Helmets for cyclists, seat belts, boating licences, smoke detectors, reflector tape on trailers, to name only a few. Next we may need a licence or a protective device to go to the bathroom.

Depends on the size of the boat and activity. Take the extreme. Should everyone on the MS Kenora wear one? How about a houseboat while moving? What about a 36 ft Cuddy? A 24 ft Pontoon? Most that drown are either young impaired men or men fishing off of small fishing boats. I would suggest that any boat with less than one hundred and twenty square feet of space on it, the passengers should wear a lifejacket. That way, the people on a 20 x 8 foot pontoon doing 20 km per hour won't be required to wear one but on the 19 ft bass boat they would.

Common sense! There are so many out there without it.

There are those who debate the fact that seatbelts actualy "save" lives in some situations, but no question about it, a lifejacket WILL help save a person who doesnt know how to swim!, or even those who are strong swimmers. I think there should be a law because sadly, there's lots out there with no common sense enough to wear one.
