This may affect most of the list.

* The National Boating Safety Advisory Council recently approved a resolution for life jacket wear, asking the Coast Guard to pursue requirements for life jacket wear for recreational boaters in certain circumstances, the Marine Retailers Association of America reported. The resolution asks the Coast Guard to consider requiring life jackets for boaters on personal watercraft; human-powered vessels, such as canoes or kayaks; any vessel less than 18 feet in length; and any person being towed while engaging in water sports. The federal government has been pushing for mandatory adult life jacket wear for several years, according to the MRAA. -- Soundings, full story: _http://tinyurl.com/TOT-041311_ (http://tinyurl.com/TOT-041311)
