Nick wrote; (SNIP of valid points regarding inflatable PFDs) All of Nick's points are worth considering and but to my knowledgenon of the non infltables is as comfortable as the inflatbale and none will guarantee to float you head up. No, inflatables are not perfect but they do offer advantages. I believe they can be a suitable alternative to foam jackets for those whose priorities differ. To me the biggest advanatge is that they take up less room on the deck.
