It depends on how much stuff he/she is carrying
with them for the hunt, and how much they are
carrying enroute back to the boat.
I have e-mailed Tom to do a calculation since he
already has the data formulas for typical back
inflate & jacket styled BC wearers as well as an
ABS backpack. He also has numbers for hawaiian
packs. I am sure the comparable numbers will be
insignificant at best with _proper_trim_. That
is what the calculation initially intended to
prove.
By the way sockpuppet, have you seen the newest
wings? No STA, and the tank is less than 1/4"
from your back.
