The NRS Chinook is a really nice vest/PFD. I use one exclusively in my Outback and soon to receive Revolution. For the money I haven't seen much I'd consider better, if even as good.
However, the high back design is still not high enough for the PA seat. So I decided to switch to an manual/auto suspender type inflatable PFD. It's cooler. I don't need to keep any gear in it due to the obvious storage options in the PA itself. It has no back (straps only) so it doesn't upset your sitting posture or require seat adjustment.
Just to be sure, before I went out with it the first time I tossed it in the lake. I wanted to be sure it would actually inflate. It did. Took about 5 or 10 seconds.
That's what I was thinking would be the case. Thanks for the info.
