Dave,
Thanks for posting this. It definitely made me re-think/do my on board set up. PFD's will no longer be stored in a 'hold'. They will be attached to chests or boat seats. Also, I'm shopping for a 'bail out bag' tomorrow.
Also, I copied/posted this on spoonpullers. I was surprised to see no one else had already done so.
Thx again,
Symon
