Have used this PFD a number of times kayaking out here off the coast of Vancouver Island. The fit is easily adjustable so there are no "pinch" points even when it's snug against the torso. Lots of easily accessible pockets in front where you can keep your keys, small snacks, etc. but be sure to enclose any stuff that's susceptible to water damage, in a ziploc bag or some other waterproof container before stowing it in the pockets. Probably the single nicest feature of this PFD is the mesh back. It can can pretty warm on the water and the mesh back provides a lot a breathability. Also, because the floatation is higher up in the back of this PFD, there's good clearance against the seat back.
