I like them and wanted to get one but my friend has one and complained of having very little bouyancy??? he wants to sell it to me now but think i will try it first.

It is NOT a USCG approved vest, so it doesn't have near the buoyancy most vests do. I have one and I can't exactly lay back and float with it on, but it doesn't take a whole lot of effort for me to keep my head above water. I'm kind of a fish though. My advice, find one to try before you buy. I love mine, but some of my friends hate it, which doesn't bother me, that way they can't rip it or mess it up in anyway... haha

I use mine when the water is nice, and there is not alot of other boats around. Alot more work to stay a float.

Check out the Oneil Vapor it is really comfy and not bulky. It floats you really well for a Non-CGA vest. Obviously CGA vests are safer though. I guess it's personal preference.
