OP
Just strap on the transpac and you're ready to go. It has all you need in an "exposure" suit

a rubber......suit?
OP
The pliable and durable rubberized twill making up the main body of the VACO Life Suit is of a sufficiently light weight to permit continual wear. The whole garment, including weighted boots, weighs but 13.5 pounds. Free hands, made possible by tight wrist closures, make normal work practical and permit freedom of action in emergencies.

It's for when you need to jump ship if Oxy is ever the Captain.

1. Vaco has met all the severest tests in all kinds of emergencies for three years under actual battle conditions.
2. Vaco is fool-proof with nothing to rust, foul or freeze when every second of time counts.
Okay I will buy that us ladies meet the severest tests of endurance while trying to dive with the men on Scubaboard but to think that anything is fool-proof around them is just stretching rubber toooo far...

[/FONT][FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]One of the features of the Vaco suit is the weighted boots. These keep the wearers body vertical in the water unless definite effort is made to float horizontally. Even if the wearer becomes unconscious for any reason, the vertical position of the body, with the water-line at about chest level, keeps the wearer's head out of water at all times.[/FONT]
I'm telling you Sandy, you better get one. You could bob for hours. He could even knock you unconscious and you would still survive.
