In Response To: Ocean Parkas (Brianne Corbett)

:: But here is another alternative that I am pretty hot on right now. There are
: some manufacturers who make ocean parkas or vests with built in inflatable
: PFD's. A couple of examples are Sea Safe Systems Mariner or Stormy Seas
: OF9000. These are great products. I am considering switching to an Ocean
: parka with an inflatable PFD. They are expensive but they have several
: pluses... comfort... storage... warmth... safety... and hi-visibility.

I've had a Stormy Seas jacket for twelve years now. It has been through three dungeness crab seasons and two summers of chasing albacore. I test it a coup;e of times a year and it is still working. they do make a vest that I'm considering getting for paddeling. It's good stuff and it works.
