I'll have to have a few for kids also, but they're easier to manage. The
example setting is good.


If I might, I'd like to offer a suggestion.

Don't get the manual for the kids. Been there, done that - you will
spend as much for reloads as the PFD. They love to pull that little
tab don't 'cha know. :)

I have both the auto and manual - guests can use either. I prefer my
Mustang PFD jacket which has auto inflate and I have a lighter Orca
auto that I use all the time - can't even tell I'm wearing it.

I like the Mustang better than the Stearns - they seem to fit every
one much better - a little larger and with more room.
