Slightly off the topics of kayaks, I was in Maui a couple months ago and
signed up for an expensive snorkeling tour to Lania. While reading different
reviews of the tour, I found out that they required all snorkelers to wear
PFDs! I called and confirmed it with the tour opperator and canceled my
tour. I think a lot of the arguments made here for PFD use would suggest
snorklers should use them, but I'm not going to be one of them. I think the
idea that we need the govmint to pass laws to take all the risk out of life
is ridiculous.    Mark Sanders
