I just recieved my two jackets, thank you Kent.
Some of the best high performance boat money you can spend:iagree:
Those are virtually worthless unless you just casually fall into the water , they will rip off your body in a speed related situation and have no impact protection . I bought one and gave it to my dad after I realized it's not for speed boating , but still usefull for casual boating and fishing .Quote:

Nobody here will think It looks funny!!! Strap one on!
It just means you are smarter than they are .Nothing more dangerous than a flats boat or bay boat at speed ...one hiccup and you're out of the boat . Don't ask me how I know this !!!:cheers:
got mine today...this thing is nice.. thanks again Kent.

A couple of months ago i met a friend at the ramp for some testing on his boat. The wind was to strong so he just decided to wear the rings in some. After assureing me he would not run it hard and i hollard at him to put his jacket on (he did) he drove off. As time went by i got concerned because it was getting dark. I called out all boating friends and the sherriff`s office for a search. A fisherman running nets found him sitting on a log and in bad shape but alive. He stearing hose connection broke and was thrown from his boat when it hooked at 70mph. He says that without his life jacket he would not be here today. It`s the only thing that saved him that night. He had an injured shoulder and broken ribbs.
I wear mine now!
