A Personal Flotation Device (PFD) should be discarded if it shows signs of significant wear, such as tears, holes, or damage to the buckles and straps. Additionally, if it has lost buoyancy or its inner foam has deteriorated, it is no longer effective and should be replaced. Regular inspections are important to ensure the PFD remains in good condition for safety. Always follow the manufacturer's guidelines for lifespan and maintenance.
