   Of course I don't actually sit on my PFD, but it's tempting sometimes.
I purchased a bright purple Lotus PFD some years ago, mostly because of
the great design and the bright color. But over the years the color faded
to a dull blue. From what I've read on Paddlewise, bright yellow probably
would have been the best choice.
