my concern is the water temp might be more if its -2 on land i woundnt take the risks CWS is the main killer in any boating accident he might not be far from land but a life jacket would give him a fighting chance if the rivers flowing fast and he was in some sort of difficulty, even the best swimmers drown mate once the body goes in to shock ..!! and at that temp it takes less then a minute

i know its a river and not the sea but i would not go on any boat with out one ..!!

anyway thats my 2 penny worth now i,l shut up ..
Thanks for that, I'll bear it in mind.
