I've read numerous times that folks sometimes rely on dry bags for flotation 
in concert with flotation bags or by themselves on occasion.

Has anyone observed the efficacy of these two forms of flotation in a kayak.

My guess is that the dry bags will not  be as efficient as dedicated float 
bags.
