The idea is that if you go in, you want to stay as dry as possible to avoid hypothermia. If for some reason you do go over in 50-55 degree water you want to be prepared.

The outback and PA are super stable, but they are still small crafts and can flip if things get nasty or if you take a boat wake the wrong way, so you have to think about dressing for the water temps.

Have to be a pretty darn huge boat wake to flip my 14 over! LOL!
