Hey sandy, remember to throw in some weight to simulate the gear you carry that is heavier than water. It might be that you cannot even keep it at the surface even with the added flotation of your PFD. I am dying to see the result though.
I was planning to put all my gear in the yak to get a honest test out of it. I have some dive weights as well (to simulate beer 6-pack). I do need to get a NRS kayak handpump. The pump I have is not up to the job.
