Has anyone got a war story about turning turtle on a 15? James, you mentioned an airbag. When I was diving many years ago, we had a small inflatable rubber thing. It used a co2 cartridge and it would inflate on demand and blow up the rubber "balloon" to the eqivilent of 80# of lift. About the size of a big beach ball. It had a lanyard on it to secure it to whatever you were trying to lift. I wonder if you ever "turtled" if something like that might pull the mast up to the waterline again. Randy, Thanks for your comment. It almost sounds to me like I'd be better off with less flotation rather than more. True? Kendall in NW Louisiana M-15 #164
