I believe it was at last years big bass tournament on Rayburn a bunch of folks found out about this the hard way like you did.
I'm not a fan of the inflatables, so the good old fashioned ones are in my boat anyways.

kill switch being against the law will come into play Sept 1st. Right now it is not required. Inflatable PFD has to be worn to be legal. Regular type 3 just has to be on vessel. I still don't know how a wake surfer or water skier is not required to wear a PFD as long as there is one in the boat for them.

I believe they have to no matter what. When I was into wakeboarding around 13 years ago that was the law. They sold some life jackets that didn't meet coast guard standards, they weren't as thick so you could move more, but even those were against the law to use on most lakes.
Not the case. All you have to do is have a Type 3 on the vessel for the person being towed. The skier, wake boarder, etc are considered put if the vessel. Only exception is if towing with PWC then it is required to be worn just as you are riding the PWC. I know does not make sense to me either
