Floating your way out to 20ft. seas would make for quite a ride. :shocked: [img]graemlins/1zhelp.gif[/img]

Default Wear your life jacket
I know this horse has been beat to death before, but this article points our the importance of wearing your life jacket. It's suprising this guy lasted 4 hours in 50 degree water. I would never think you could last that long without succumbing to hypothermia, but the life jacket gave him a chance.
