Kayaking For Seniors - How to Pick the Best PFD - Episode 7

[@jordangouveia1863]

I never wore a PFD until I tried a self inflating model. I found very it comfortable and I wear it, unlike the others I own that I'd use as backrests. I actully used it a couple of months ago when I dumped my yak under a tree fall. Worked like a charm.

You and me both. I do not like the bulk. I have an inflator that I only use in rivers and big streams as well with the automatic inflation disabled since I wade.

Very informative. My jacket is a fishing type with tons of pockets. I keep my hook tool, fish grips, knife, pliers, and waterproof phone case in them. Each is attached to the vest with a spring type keychain, so nothing will get lost overboard. That was one purchase where I took the line from Jurassic Park, "spared no expence".

Wise choice!

Absolutely

I just use a swim/snorkel vest. They cost about $20 or less and until you blow it up it's just a hi vis vest. I use a little nicer one with a zipper.
