The vest question really boils down to the chance of a total failure of the air bladder. Since if it happened, I'm thinking things would "get a bit sticky" quickly. :titanic: Not alot of time to put on vest.
So how many people have had a sinking of one's tube so fast, thus creating a need for the vest? I'm thinking not many, if any at all.
The hose idea is great. :thumb: Should easily be enough to fill a leak till you can reach shore.
Do I get a wearable, comfortable vest cause of the chance of sinking, or are these tubes (FC4 or ODC) reliable enough to get way with the Walmart $15, yes Mr. Game Warden, I have a vest?
