Choosing the Right Life Jacket
Offshore PFD Life Jackets & Vests
The number one goal of life jacket design is to create a vest that boaters will wear. Commercial life rings and cushions offer after the crisis floatation but when it comes to an emergency on the water a comfortable PFD or life jacket worn at all times is the best option.

Defender offers many styles of marine PFD's that ensure family and crew will be protected. Safety, style and comfort and ranges of size from infant to grown up, high speed PFDs and specialty vests are available for everyone on board even the family dog!
What is the difference between a life jacket and a PFD?
The USCG rates floatation devices in types 1 through 4. Commercials life rings and cushions fall under type 4, while commercial vests and suits are type 3. Type 1 and 2 protect family and friends on board. Modern day PFD's are offered in a variety of colors and sizes, lightweight, compact and easy to wear while active Defender offers many PFDs that automatically inflate and traditional manual inflatables.
