A 6091 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

"Dylan's Law," requires information be provided regarding types of US Coast Guard approved personal flotation devices under certain circumstances.

Dylan's Law requires that information about US Coast Guard approved personal flotation devices (life jackets) be provided to vessel owners, boaters, and personal watercraft renters. It mandates that vessel registration applications include details about different life jacket types and when each is required or recommended by law. Boating safety courses must now include comprehensive instruction on these devices, and sellers or renters of personal watercraft must provide informational materials at the point of sale or rental. Purchasers or renters must acknowledge they've received this information, and sellers must make available Type I life jackets, the highest buoyancy type, regardless of other options.
