A Class III personal flotation device (PFD) is designed for specific water activities and provides minimum buoyancy and support. It is typically intended for activities like kayaking, canoeing, or water skiing, where quick entry and exit from the water is necessary. Class III PFDs often feature a more streamlined design and may not provide as much buoyancy as higher-rated PFDs. They are suitable for users who are conscious swimmers in calm waters or who are using them in conjunction with other safety measures.
