    Under the age of 13 ... all times boat is underway. But, it's probably prudent to have them ALL wear one "at all times" ... especially if they're not seasoned boaters or they're on a lake with heavy traffic. Only takes a split second to go overboard, whether the boat is under power or stationary. And "under power" can be with the big motor OR the trolling motor !!
