Life Jackets on Yachts — Certified Safety on Board with Yatezzitos
The life jackets on yachts are the most important safety equipment aboard any vessel in the Yatezzitos fleet and the first thing the crew presents to the group at the start of every outing. Life jackets on board go beyond meeting the requirements of the Secretary of the Navy: at Yatezzitos they are the visible expression of the principle that guides every departure — that the safety of every passenger is non-negotiable, with no exceptions.
Life Jackets for Everyone: Adults, Teens and Kids
The Yatezzitos fleet carries certified life jackets for every passenger on board, including sizes for children as young as three years old. All jackets comply with Mexican and international buoyancy and durability standards, ensuring that in the event of an emergency they will keep each passenger properly afloat. High-buoyancy jackets — rated for open-water use — are also available on larger vessels for longer passages. The Yatezzitos crew demonstrates to the group how to properly put on and adjust each life jacket before every departure. The result is that sailing with Yatezzitos means the entire group is correctly equipped from the moment the yacht leaves the dock.
When Life Jackets Are Used on Board
First, life jackets are mandatory for all passengers during water activities such as snorkeling, kayaking, or paddleboarding. In addition, in conditions of heavy swells or strong winds, the captain may instruct the group to wear life jackets during navigation as a precautionary measure. Furthermore, for children under 10 years of age, wearing a life jacket is always mandatory when they are on deck during navigation or near the stern. According to data from the Wikipedia on maritime safety, life jackets reduce the risk of drowning by more than 80% in small vessel accidents.
