Is the recommended method for storing your Personal Flotation Devices (PFD) on board a boat?

The recommended method for storing Personal Flotation Devices (PFDs) on board a boat is to keep them easily accessible and in a dry, ventilated area. PFDs should not be stored in airtight containers or in direct sunlight to prevent damage to the materials. It's important to ensure that they are organized and readily available for all passengers in case of an emergency. Regular inspections of the PFDs for wear and tear are also advisable.
