What PFDs are approved for skiing or personal water craft operators in Virginia?

In Virginia, personal flotation devices (PFDs) approved for skiing or personal watercraft operators include Type I, II, and III life jackets. These must be U.S. Coast Guard-approved and in good condition. Specifically, Type I and II are typically best for open water, while Type III is suitable for recreational use. It's also required that each person on board has a PFD readily accessible, and children under 13 must wear one at all times while on a vessel.
