Kayak Life Vests for Safety
Reliable kayak life vests are necessary when you do kayak fishing. There are several types available. The most reliable type is a foam vest, which is designed for swimmers and non swimmers. Inflatable types are recommended for swimmers. The size of the vest depends on your weight and size.
A durable universal life jacket costs about $35-55. The foam is covered with quick drying nylon. The zipper should be non corroding. Choose a size that will fit comfortably.
The Avant paddle sports vest costs about $35-40. The flotation foam is covered with 500 denier nylon. It has a full front zipper and a front buckle. A front zip pocket allows you to store small items. The Stearns Nova inflatable vest costs about $90-100. It is a lightweight, comfortable model. Material is sturdy 420 denier nylon. The back shoulder pad can be adjusted for neck and head support. The large front zippered pocket has organizer compartments inside. Zippered hand warming pockets can double as storage space. One size fits adults over 80 lbs with a chest size of 32" - 52".
