Based on the conversation I had with the MP when they brought my 15 year old daughter and her friend back to our dock in the canoe without life jackets you need life jackets for sure. $200 fine for each occupant and another fine for the boat owner. They were very nice and professional about it and didn't give a written warning. What saved us was our daughter telling them we require life jackets and they were more afraid of what I would do than what the MP would when I found out they went out without them. He even said he was 15 once and asked us not to be too had on them. He did not mention the throw ring.
