Jeff,
When I bought this one last year I asked about that problem and I was told that rain would not make it inflate for some reason. Never had it out in the rain though?????

Jeff,
You made your point. There's no sense in taking shots at each other. If you want to continue this discussion you can PM me.

The wife and I have custom made to fit Lifelines and we have a few other 100mph neoprene vests for guests. Typically go a lot slower with anyone else in the boat. Fit is as important as brand.

Comment:

If your going to use the Life Jackets exclusively for Poker Runs then buy Lifelines.

However, if your using these PFD's for general boating here is a little caveat----the "Lifelines" are not USCG approved so you will be required to carry USCG approved PFD's in addition to your Lifelines.

If your just cruising get some Jet Pilot or Slippery brand PFD's they work good and are USCG approved. Also remember to attach your kill lanyard you don't want to be run over by your own boat.

WHY? Is it too expensive for lifeline to get them USCG approved...
