You own and operate a commercial vessel under 12 meters
upon the open ocean
with your OUPV near coastal license. You have the
requisite number of
offshore Type I PFDs purchased approximately one year ago.
They are stowed
in an easily accessible location, have never been opened
nor used. The
passengers have been briefed on their donning and
operation. They have a
chemical luminescent light attached to each of them, as
required by the
regs.

Unfortunately, you've been randomly boarded by the Coast
Guard and found not
to be in compliance for two issues related to the
lifejackets. One of the
issues is kind of nitpicky, but these guys are thorough!
The other is
obviously observed. What are these issues?

5 pts for the nitpicky issue.
2 pts for the obvious one.


Nitpicky ; Mauve is not a legal color for PFDs.

Obvious ; There's no buckles.
