Thanks guys.

I thought I heard something along those lines, but never saw a thread on this subject. I just mentioned the Poker Run vest because it was plainly described as a Non USCG approved vest. I need to purchase a couple quality vests for the wife and myself for our new Runnerbottom.

I get the quality of the vests mentioned as I was part of the Lucas Dragboat series this year. These vests work! It just seems so odd that you can spend so much for a product and not get the certification.

This is one of the moments in life where you get what you pay for "safety" and some "Federal Suit and Tie" type guy has something else to say about it. Go figure?
