    Cheap but good vests...

    Not that I am pitching any brand or manufacturer, but we have found some great neoprene ski vests at COSECO. Adult sizes are $39.99 and youth sizes are $29.99. They also have similar pricing for shorty wetsuits (women and youth sizes).

    The vests are JOBE, two buckles. I haven't used them for skiing or anything yet, but they are very comfy and seem to be good quality. Plus COSECO has a great return system.

    We have some "good" Jackets that we bought last year for the family. By "good" I mean expensive. But with a new and bigger boat, we are trying to replace our older jackets (nylon) as well as get some of more jackets of various sizes. We want to make sure, as friends visit, they are comfortably outfitted.

    Just my two cents worth.

    My buddy snagged one of those Jobe neos from Sam's Club two years ago. We are pretty hardcore in everything we do out on the water, so it didn't last more than 2 years. With the price that low though, I still think they're worth it. With average use, I'd guess they'd last 3-4 years no problem.

      That's what we thought...they won't be the primary jackets, only for visitors and to make us legal on the water.
