I got mine for some of the longer stretches of the Texas Water Safari and for training. Incase your unfamiliar with the Safari that is a 260 mile race from San Marcus to Seadrift . When your paddling down the lower Colorado River, where I train, and both the wind and river are flowing in the opposite direction then you and it's 100 plus in the shade some music can be highly motivational. > Next thing they'll come up with waterproof TV so I can watch the > discovery channel while I'm paddling.
