ppgwings Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 He was lucky, good reminder why it's unsafe to fly over water! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 I just know someone will pitch out the Agma system shortly so I would just like to say..... Although a very very good idea (if) you insist on flying over deep water with no glide clear options..... But , treat it like a condom!!! They sometimes don't work. In other words don't rely on it!! The better option of course is remain in a glide clear position or stick to still water that you can stand up in. (If) your going to do it at all that is.

notch Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Has anyone tried strapping a regular inflatable life-jacket around the frame of their motor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christian Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Simon, good advice, suggesting that they be treated as a condom, but you say They sometimes don't work. . Do you have experience of this happening, or rather, not happening? I ask because I had been considering buying one.Thanks, Christian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 No not at all. I mean to say, have in your mind that you can not / should not100% rely on it. SW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
