Adam Bolonsky Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 A ladies' version follows soon, let's hope bedecked in a Speedo. Thong version is extra. For my money, I appreciate the use of SOLAS tape for better groping-, err, visibility, at night. http://onkayaks.squarespace.com/journal/20...le-force-i.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gcosloy Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Adam-I don't know if this is presented for laughs or not. There is one serious use which is the ability to float most of your body out of the water, thereby reducing hypothermia risk while you're waiting for rescue. (Assuming you either lost the boat or have become to weak to reenter same.) I wonder if anyone markets an emergency inflatable product that could easily be carried on the back of a PFD?

jonsprag1 Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 I think I've seen those inflatable "anatomically correct" paddle floats advertised in the back of a certain men's magazine--the mind boggles at the possible uses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Bolonsky Posted March 6, 2007 Author Share Posted March 6, 2007 Hi Gene, I'd say this one for sure was done up as a joke. But the idea of a c02-inflatable keep-you-above-water level device sure is intriguing, all kidding aside. Nonetheless, the post by Ignacio almost got me to split my pants laughing.

Michael_Crouse Posted March 7, 2007 Share Posted March 7, 2007 http://www.wavelengthmagazine.com/1997/as97seaseat.php I don't think they make this anymore, but I think this is what you have in mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
