Does anyone here like to wear a pfd under their outer coat when snowmobiling out on the frozen lake? If it was me, I would wear one just for the psychological boost to know that I would remain floating if I wound up in the very cold water. A pfd and self rescue ice picks seems like it could make a difference because an individual can be good to self rescue from icy water for maybe 15-minutes before the cold water freezes up your fingers, hands and arms. Having a good breakfast with microwave oatmeal and orange juice probably helps too!
