Bill,
I like inflatables and always use one. On our small Whalers with little storage space they are ideal.
I like the fit and comfort of the West Marine coastal models. They are currently on sale at 40% off. IMO, a pretty decent buy. The guy's model is blue while the ladies get purple. Other than color I can't tell any difference. The different colors are useful so we don't grab each others PFDs and have to go through the switch or changing the adjustments.
They have a belt model that I use only for fishing as it allows a bit more mobility.
