Selecting a Life jacket is not difficult if you know what you are looking for, but your decisions must be made with the five W's - Who, What, Where, When and Why in mind. At no other time is your choice of a preserver going to be more important than when you decide Who will where it, for What purpose is your selection, Where will you use it, When will you where it and Why do you wear the Life Jacket you have selected.
