Here in VA, a kayaker died this weekend, no PFD. Needless tragedy.

@A-Jay, @Sam, others here beside myself constantly urge
the wearing of PFDs all the time. There's a reason, and here
is another example why. Whatever the cause of his death,
barring a catastrophic stroke or heart-attack, he stood a greater
chance of survival if he had a PFD on.
