Each life jacket must be marked with Type I retro reflective material approved in 46 CFR 164.018. 06 life jackets require new retro reflective tape. CITE: 46 CFR 185.604(h)

Vessel had groups of life floats tethered to single weak link. Weak link installed was designed to break free with life raft capacity less than capacity of group.

Each item of survival craft equipment must be of good quality, and efficient for the purpose it is intended to serve. USCG Marine Inspectors found three (3) out of nine (9) of the life floats onboard had broken and missing straps, deteriorated lines, and missing data plates. Remove and replace the life floats or effect appropriate repairs to the satisfaction of the attending marine inspector.
