Review on Exploring the Stearns Adult Watersport Classic Series Vest: Comfort and Safety for Water Enthusiasts by Ernest Duckett

Revainrating 4 out of 5

good spare part for group activities

I believe the label identifies this vest as a water sports vest. As a substitute, this is normal for guests rowing as part of a group. The combination of fit and buoyancy would make me very uncomfortable using it in adverse conditions where help or rescue could be delayed. In these situations, I had to make sure that this vest would keep the unconscious victim's head above the water. (But its tendency to "curl up" toward the wearer could serve that function - to lull the wearer's head - although this seems to go against standard fit and adjustment guidelines, which require buoyancy to be kept low on the wearer remains to push face and head out of the water.)

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Quick start guide
