USCG Boating Safety Bundle

Nothing ruins a perfect weekend on the water faster than seeing blue lights flashing behind you, followed by a surprise safety inspection.

The U.S. Coast Guard and local law enforcement take vessel compliance incredibly seriously. 

Whether you just took delivery of a brand-new vessel or you're auditing your current gear for the season, here is the official, real-world checklist of everything legally required by the Coast Guard for recreational boats between 16 and 26 feet. Due to shipping restrictions, we do not ship pressurized fire extinguishers, so we recommend picking up one before you go out onto the water.

The kit comes with:

1. PDFs - choose your sizing, preferred colors and your preferred quantity (you may adjust the quanitity in your shopping cart prior to checkout)
2. Orion Blue Water First Aid Kit
3. Orion Signaling Kit (visible distress signals)
4. Plano dry box (perfect for keeping your documents, valuables and cell phone safe and dry)
5. Handheld electric horn (audible distress signal)
6. Taylor Made Foam Ring buoy (can be deployed and retrieved more easily than buoyant cushions)
7. Bailer kit: on hand for when you need it

How to Build Your Custom Compliance Kit:

• Select Your Vests: Use the quick-add options below to choose your preferred brands, colors, and sizes. Change the quantity to match your vessel's capacity (USCG requires 1 PFD per passenger + 1 throwable device).

• Add Your Essentials: Scroll down to select your preferred Orion medical kit, emergency horn, signaling kit, and required Taylor Made throwable ring buoy.

• Hit Checkout: Add everything to your cart directly from this page for a complete, one-click compliant season.
