Julio wrote "Have any of you ever been in a situation where you would have perished without a PFD?" The answer is yes, I am sure that I would have drowned when throw out a raft on the Chatkal River in Siberia, if it were not for the PFD I was wearing--the helmet probably helped alot too. Even with the PFD, I was unconscious when pulled from the water........... Everyone, be safe on those rivers and lakes.....
