[cool][#0000ff]I don't know any tubers that actually wear their PFD while on the water. But, the laws of most states are that you have to have one. I have a fairly compact Stearns PFD that I roll tightly and secure with a bungee cord. It rides in the area behind the seat without taking too much space.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]If you look around, you can find some "soft side" coolers that will hold a couple of drinks and some ice. These are ideal for tubers. Just remember...what goes in must come out. Better to sacrifice the convenience of easily available drinks for the inconvenience of extra "downloads". Only during the hottest summer days, when dehydration is a REAL concern, do I even take water or other "refreshments" out on the water with me.[/#0000ff]
