 apparently do not supply float bags as standard equipment, either. But I
 suppose if you've reached the Mariner level, you probably know all about
 that stuff, anyway. >>

By the time you pick up your new Mariner you will have received more then 
enough  safety talk. If you think Matt's E-mails are long and informative try 
going into the shop and asking a question. That is if someone else has not 
asked a question first, in that case you may have to cool your heels for a 
half hour or so:) 
Since they make kayaks without bulkheads, the need for Float bags is a 
requirement that you pay for above the base price of the kayak.

I paddle a Mariner MAX  without hatches or permanent bulkheads.
