Sea Tow Foundation opens life jacket “loaner stands” in Miami

Cutler Bay News. By Louisa Beckett.

New Miami area Sea Tow Foundation life jacket loaner stations at local marinas now provide life jackets for boaters to borrow free of charge for a safe and fun day on the water. They are made possible through a generous $5,559 donation from brewery giant Anheuser-Busch and its local distributor, Eagle Brands Distributors.

A special ceremony on Oct. 8 at Bayside Marketplace officially launched the program in the area.

“We are grateful to Eagle Brands Distributors for their generous donation that will allow us to open seven new life jacket loaner stands in Miami and Upper Keys,” said Gail R. Kulp, executive director of the Sea Tow Foundation. “Boaters will be able to borrow a life jacket for free and wear it so that they can be safe on the water, and we only ask that they return the jacket at the end of the day so that someone else may borrow it.”
