Instead of using a pfd in a kayak, I usually use a swimmer's belt, which costs about $25 new, from Parafunalia in Gilford. Those bright yellow, foam belts with the one single strap. They are much less bulky than a pfd, and don't get in the way for paddling, plus they can be moved from one's waist to one's armpits, plus for swimming they center your buoyancy .....something that a pfd does not do.
