Burncycle.....That is a GREAT idea....having them google a map pic and sending it. I'm 'stealing....I mean borrowing that' and giving it to our local Emergency Management team. Thanks.

If you're going to be on the water wear your life jacket (PFD).
I like the fishing styles with extra pockets.

On a more serious note:
I think we can all learn from the sad tale of the inuit who tried using a stove in his canoe. Only for it to ignite and sink.
Hence the old irish eskimo saying;
You can't have your kayak and heat it'.

Dougs overwater aviator survival vest is the obvious best candidate to wear.
