Comments about West Marine Runabout Vests:
We just bought our first boat and needed life vests for our family of five. The Runabout vest looked like a nice balance between price, quality, and style to get us started. However, they turned out to be way too short in the back and extremely uncomfortable. I returned them today. I recommend looking for another life vest even if it means spending a little more money.
