By Representative Ryu

On page 3, beginning on line 9, after "paddleboard" strike "who is wearing a leash that connects the paddleboard" and insert "or operating or occupying an outrigger canoe who is wearing a leash that connects the paddleboard or the outrigger canoe"

On page 3, at the beginning of line 15, strike "national or international"

EFFECT:  Exempts a person who is operating or occupying an outrigger canoe and wearing a leash that connects the person to the outrigger canoe from the requirement to wear a personal flotation device, if the person is also in compliance with federal requirements for personal flotation devices on board and attached to the vessel. Modifies an exemption from the personal flotation device requirement for persons operating or occupying a kayak, canoe, or stand-up paddleboard as part of a sanctioned competition recognized by a racing association by removing the requirement that the racing association be national or international.
