........if you do have to put one on you'd really want to spend the little bit extra for the black inflatable ring.

One thing to note.....these don't last forever, so if your picking up an old one look at it good. In the commercial world they are tested every so often, I forget how often. Last time I saw it done 75% of the suits onboard failed. Do I think they still would have saved your life, I think so. The seems start to go and they don't hold back the water as good.
