Life Jackets

[KAP]

I always wonder if people respect the speeds now days.

In the past 100MPH was a lofty goal most if not 90% of the people boating never see those speeds. In the last 5 years the 100MPH mark is yesterdays news. The new benchmark for speed is 150MPH and above.

On occasion some people make snide comments about my wearing a jacket. I usually laugh because they do not have any comprehension of boating safety or they are riding in a toon doing 22mph.

I rarely ever see anyone wearing a jacket.

djunkie brought up a great point I overlooked. I also feel a whole lot safer with a jacket on.
