What PFD do you use/recommend?

[addicted2sp33d]

Hi Masters of Kayaks and Fish...

Before I get flamed, I just want to say that I tried to do some searches on PFDs, but "PFD" is not enough letters, and using the individual words "Personal" "Flotation" "Device" didn't help much either.

I was wondering what kinds of PFDs you guys use and/or recommend? I'm actually looking for two PFDs:

• A new bright-orange one for me that I can clip some stuff-to, e.g. knife, radio, etc.
• A basic one for my wife (who refuses to learn how to swim but is strangely interested in joining me on the water).

I think my wife needs a Type I or Type II at least, but she cares that most of the Type I's look like orange bricks and are uncomfortable as a barb-wire bra.

Help me great ones!
