[QUOTE="Thommothebear, post: 487464, member: 64806"] Only caveat I have is that if you are kayaking in surf, or where there is some other risk of injury such as white water, a wetsuit will not necessarily keep you floating on your back with face out of water if you are unconcious or otherwise disabled, which modern lifejackets have to do to be certified. The other thing to consider is that a crotchstrap is pretty essential for an effective lifejacket. The old bouyancy aids are not much better than the wetsuits really so I prefer my modern slimline harness which when inflated is a full lifejacket, and I also used the same one when sailing or out in the Rib so its multi purpose.
