This is what happens when you forget about your auto PFD!

This was on the video I shot this weekend catfishing in my PA14. I had to share it with you guys for comic relief

That was funny! Thanks for being humble enough to share it. I'm sure next time you will take it off first!

Your not alone, I just had to buy a recharge kit for my Mustang. I was trying to get on shore and my leg buckled under me and I wound up in the water, poof. Luckily I had a spare PFD. Sorry, no vid.

Quality, pure quality....that cheered me up

That is exactly the reason why I never installed the cartridge on mine. I opted for doing the manual inflation method. I just knew I'd hit the water in a recreational situation forgetting it was on and poof! Thanks for sharing-pretty funny.

It's good to know that I'm not the only one.

I have had one go off in my truck ( just a long time of high humidity I guess ) and one go off after "somebody" put it in a almost dry ice chest for transport. That is when I found out that the "spindle" is nothing more than a small do-nut made of salt. water will melt it in a heartbeat and give you a heart attack in the process.

this last few weeks, I was luck enough to find Academy clearing out re-arm kits for various models and score 4 for under $30 total. NOt that I plan any more practice inflations.
