ABSTRACT:
A life jacket is provided with a pocket in which a length of line is retained. A suction cup device is attached to a free end of the line so that the user may attach the suction cup to a capsized boat or the like. A modified embodiment includes a plurality of the suction cups attached to a length of line which permits a user to form a set of hand holds or steps so that he can easily climb upon a capsized boat.
