KAYAK SEARCH/RESCUE

Featured Replies

I saw on one of the FB kayak groups, where they were discussing some folks placing emergency contact information on their kayaks in the event their kayaks were ever found unmanned on the water. (A lot of states do not require kayak registration.) I had these tags made awhile back and I have them attached to my PFD and on the seat of my kayak. Mine are made of a PVC composite material and were made at a local print shop. (actual numbers redacted for this photo) I've heard that the Coast Guard provides stickers for the same purpose, but I've yet to see this referenced on their web site. I hope others think about doing something similar.

Coast Guard stickers can be requested HERE for DC Area - check local Coast Guard Aux for other areas.
