Unlike a wearable PFD, a Type IV throwable cushion is not worn on the body; it is stowed on board and tossed overboard in an emergency, making it a required piece of safety equipment on many boats, kayaks, and canoes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cushion features a nylon cover for abrasion resistance and a polypropylene fill that provides buoyancy without absorbing water, so it stays ready to grab even after repeated exposure to spray and rain. It measures 15 inches by 16 inches by 2.5 inches, a size designed to be easy to grip and throw a distance in an emergency, and it is finished in white for high visibility on deck and in the water.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis cushion is USCG approved and UL listed, and it complies with federal requirements for boats under 16 feet, kayaks, and canoes that call for a Type IV throwable device on board. Keep it stowed in an easily accessible location, such as a cockpit locker or seat back, so it can be reached and thrown quickly if someone goes overboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 110200-702-999-12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Type IV Throwable Flotation Cushion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e White\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCover Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nylon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFill Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polypropylene\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15 inches x 16 inches x 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.94 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 043311807821\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertification:\u003c\/strong\u003e USCG Approved, UL Listed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e Boats under 16 feet, kayaks, and canoes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWear Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Throwable (Type IV) - grasped and held, not worn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Kent White Throwable Boat Cushion USCG approved?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the Kent White Throwable Boat Cushion (part 110200-702-999-12) is USCG approved and UL listed, meeting federal requirements for Type IV throwable devices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat boats is this cushion required or recommended for?\u003c\/strong\u003e This Type IV throwable cushion complies with federal requirements for boats under 16 feet, as well as kayaks and canoes, that call for a throwable flotation device on board.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo you wear this cushion like a life jacket?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. The Kent White Throwable Boat Cushion is a Type IV device designed to be thrown to a person in the water and grasped or held until rescued, not worn on the body.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size is the Kent White Throwable Boat Cushion?\u003c\/strong\u003e The cushion measures 15 inches by 16 inches by 2.5 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the throwable boat cushion weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e Part 110200-702-999-12 weighs 1.94 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the cushion made of?\u003c\/strong\u003e The cover is nylon and the interior fill is polypropylene, a combination chosen for abrasion resistance and buoyancy without water absorption.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat color does the cushion come in?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Kent throwable boat cushion, part 110200-702-999-12, is white for high visibility on deck and in the water.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this cushion suitable for kayaks and canoes?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, this Type IV throwable cushion meets federal requirements for kayaks and canoes in addition to boats under 16 feet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere should the throwable cushion be stored on a boat?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Kent White Throwable Boat Cushion should be stowed in an easily accessible spot, such as a cockpit locker or seat back, so it can be grabbed and thrown quickly in an emergency.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the polypropylene fill absorb water over time?\u003c\/strong\u003e No, the polypropylene fill used in the Kent 110200-702-999-12 cushion is chosen specifically because it provides buoyancy without absorbing water, keeping it ready for use after repeated exposure to spray and rain.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kent Sporting Goods","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49031094403291,"sku":"ABS-80782","price":18.43,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/715gDKQ6BXL.jpg?v=1785208589","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/kent-white-throwable-boat-cushion-uscg-approved-type-iv-pfd-part-110200-702-999-12","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
