What is the minimum PFD requirement for each person on board a vessel?

  1. One USCG-approved wearable PFD

  2. Two USCG-approved throwable devices

  3. One seat cushion

  4. One safety flare

The correct answer is: One USCG-approved wearable PFD

Each person on board a vessel is required to have at least one USCG-approved wearable PFD for safety reasons. Option B, two USCG-approved throwable devices, may be an additional requirement but does not fulfill the minimum requirement. Option C, one seat cushion, is not an acceptable PFD and does not provide the necessary level of protection. Option D, one safety flare, is also not a suitable substitute for a PFD. Therefore, the correct answer is A, one USCG-approved wearable PFD.
