The US Coast Guard requires kids 12 and under to have a life jacket on at all times. There are children’s life jackets on board. It is highly recommended that if you have small children to leave them at home. Most of the time small children do not like wearing a life jacket, they end up crying the entire time aboard which is no fun for anyone.   In the event that you want to bring an infant or small child we highly recommend getting a life jacket before coming aboard. Although we have life jackets for small children, small life jackets are not a one size fits all and usually make the small child very uncomfortable. Please note, if you are bringing a life jacket for your children, there needs to be a tag on it showing it as an approved USCG TYPE 1 life vest (PFD) and meets the weight requirement for your child.
