A Type III Personal Flotation Device (PFD) is designed for activities like kayaking, canoeing, and sailing, providing flotation and a level of buoyancy to keep the wearer upright in the water. Unlike Type I or II PFDs, which are more oriented toward open water and can turn a person face-up, Type III devices are more comfortable and allow for greater freedom of movement, making them ideal for those who are active in the water. They are typically less bulky and may come in various styles, including vests and jackets, but they require the wearer to be conscious and able to swim.
