PFD INFLATION FAILURE DUE TO FALSE-POSITIVE SERVICE INDICATORS AND
INCORRECT CO2 CYLINDER INSTALLATION

I wear these things all the freakin' time and about every two GD years
this nonsense crops up.

I trust these inflatable's because the regular PFD's don't fit me
properly.

I wish they'd get the damn things right and straight rather than
having to go through this seemingly every time you turn around.


I've got a friend who wears one that goes around his waist, which seems
wrong to me. I've seen the ones that go over your shoulders, and some that
are part of a fishing vest. What kind do you have, Tom?



I have both - the shoulder and fishing vest types.

I like the fishing vest types best though.

I find that people who go with me and the client base like the
inflatable's also when underway. They aren't as reluctant to put them
on.


I talked my sister into buying the Mustang version of inflatable after
the brother-in-law had a close call falling of his houseboat while
trying to board his dinghy.
