superdad Posted February 14, 2008 Report Share Posted February 14, 2008 I wonder if the rules for PFD's holds true for Floatation Suits? Any tear or hole in a PFD renders it useless under the present regulations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallyboss Posted February 14, 2008 Report Share Posted February 14, 2008 I bought a piece of nylon and I used marine GOOP to put it on. Now it takes me a couple of minutes to actually find where I cut it. Do not use an iron on patch, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
