We have them on board but only wear them on deep wide rivers. I have often wondered if a stroke or heart attack might happen one day - that would be a useful time to be wearing a self-inflater. However, the sight of a bright orange lifejacket in the distance usually means noisy kids or new boaters! I have to avoid both, 'cos of my blood pressure problem! I also don't like those high-vis yellow jackets. I can't explain it, I just don't like 'em. And camouflaged trousers. I apologise in advance to those who like, and wear them! I see a young west indian girl at the weekend in lycra camouflage hot pants walking along the road. Just got my estimate back this morning,£500 to repair the van.

A chap from our moorings had a heart attack on the trent trad stern boat fell in and drowned no lifejacket which in this case would have saved him That's what concerns me a little these days, as I get a little older!
