      Comments about NRS CVest PFD:

      I bought the CVest to do a solo 90 mile trip down the Edisto River. I wore it for 4 days in 55 degree rain and 80 degree sun. It was warm when i needed it and cool the rest of the time.

      Lots of pockets, but they dont get in the way if not used.

      I used a high back seat and the CVest never felt uncomfortable. Never got in the way when I paddled or ducking under limbs.
