Don't want to hijack the discussion, if this is a separate topic please (admin/s) move it to a new thread.
Even with belt and pfd, is it possible to stay on the surface with Neoprene waders ?(single piece with boats).
I'm just speculating, unless you climb back to your kayak (assuming SOT) in a short time, that belt will let the water go inside the waders, and suddenly you will be above 400lbs, and it would be virtually impossible to climb the kayak .
opinions?
