The West Marine logoed SOSspender, of the Type III persuasion, mouth or ripcord activated. There is a Type I inflatable available, at considerably more price, with safety harness involved -- but doesn't seem very applicable for my purposes. It's not the ideal thing for all conditions, but is useful in conditions where I find a regular PFD excessively hot and constrictive. Your mileage may vary -- but remember that it's you doing the risk assessment for yourself. -- Wes *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - All postings copyright the author and not to be reproduced/forwarded outside PaddleWise without author's permission Submissions: PaddleWise_at_PaddleWise.net Subscriptions: PaddleWise-request_at_PaddleWise.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************Received on Mon Aug 21 2000 - 11:59:49 PDT
