I brought back some gear from the storage unit in Canada on my latest trip back to the mother country. One of the things that has been a concern for me when hunting the south shore beaches here is rip tides and breaking surf. This area of Bermuda sees a lot of tourist traffic and because of the wave action a lot of goodies are left in the waves at the south shore beaches. The problem is the potentially dangerous surf condtions that make hunting difficult. I liberated my inflateable PFD from the locker in Canada and will be wearing it religiously when conditions warrant.
My PFD is inflated with a CO2 cartridge when you pull a cord attached to the vest, otherwise it is neutral bouyancy and very compact so it doesn't get in your way when in or out of the water. I bought these units for my wife and I when we were boating as it makes it difficult not to wear proper safety gear when it is so easy to just slip this unit it on and snug it tight.
These PFD's cost around $150 but are a bargain if I ever have to pull that cord to save myself from a drowning.
