    30+ lb toddler type 2 vest?? Where?

    I have a 2yo son who has been wearing a infant type 2, at his last dr visit he was 29.8lbs and the cutoff is 30lbs for an infant vest. I want to keep him in a neo vest because he complains about the nylon ones. Does anyone know where to get a toddler type 2 neoprene vest?

    So my wife is pregnant and we are going to move to a different boat since ours is a rough ride and we will have 2 little ones (1 nb and 1 2yo) come next season.

    Bummer

    So when I was boating last weekend my bildge pump was kicking on every 15-30 minutes. I figured it was the garboard drain, but I snooped around and found this... Yep, its going to be expensive, on the bright side I will have all new bellows and a new gimbal bearing.
