The PFD is a frustrating topic particularly where regulatory approvals are involved. I really like my inflatable PFD (Stearns) but it is not Canadian Coast Guard approved so I stuff a cheap approved jacket up in the bow to satisfy the law. For years I used a green Seda jacket that was not approved and no one ever said anything about it but I'd bet that if anything ever happened to me some one would say "Yeah. he didn't have an approved jacket."
