I have a full compliment of lifelines and a few token USCG approved vests in my boat in case I'm safety checked.

 Be aware that no Lifeline is USGC approved. You can have 6 Lifelines in the boat and plus all the people wearing them as well, and you still better have enough USGC approved jackets to go around. I KNOW!  I got busted about 10 years ago. No explaining in the world about it being a better jacket was going to change the asshole's mind.. 
 
You can wear the Lifeline, but there still needs to be enough USGC vests in the boat for everybody on board, INCLUDING YOU 
 
For all those that think doing 100+ in a store bought Walmart vest is fine, guess again. If I can rip the thing off you, the water can do it in a tenth the time at 100+.
