Any boat 16 feet and longer (except canoes and kayaks) must also carry one throwable (Type IV) device .[/quote] [url]https://www.uscgboating.org/images/420.PDF[/url] Edit - not sure what good a hoist-able would be. you can't hoist it during a capsize (well unless your name is FLASH), and not sure you could position it under the mast via a control line while the boat is on it's side. so you will need to swim to the mast tip anyway to place it.<!-- editby --><em>Edited by MN3 on Oct 16, 2019 - 12:52 PM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
