    New Rhode Island Law Makes Wearing PFD Mandatory for All

    Sounds like that guide had not actually tried this. Anyone who has walked in the goo in Chokoloskee would know you sink to your chest within one step . Then you can't move to take a second step. You get to wait for the tide to come in. Sure its only three feet but it...
