The extra steps to get the belt type in place on your body may cost you a lot.
I never ever take the belt-pfd off. It is my cold water, security belt! it's worn like a belt in case I flip the kayak, or small sailboat. Staying afloat for 15-minutes in cool 55-65-degree water without a pfd can be challenging.

It is named a 'swimmer's belt' and is designed for swimming.

As a belt, it is much smaller than a vest, and doesn't get in the way of paddling so much.

Price: 24.95 at Parafunalia in Gilford.
