OK, I broke down and bought a Ladyhawk today.

I didn't try it in the pool or anything, so I've got my fingers crossed.

In any event, now I have to go and figure out how to pack even more
creatively, since I'm going to be taking my new BC as well as my new BC,
just in case I hate the new one.

How the heck am I going to bring the luggage weight in under 50 lbs??

I always call it the gunwale. Not that those little pangas have guns
mounted despite you looking like a navy seal.

Just take the new one. If it sucks, rent a BCD.
