<font color='#000000'>On a warm dry day is it bad form to wear my flotation suit on a charter boat trip or will this seem a slur on the skippers boat and ability and get funny looks and comments from fellow anglers ? Accidents do happen ! Should I be wimp or macho man ?</font>

<font color='#000000'>You may get funny looks and comments. Who cares? Do what feels right for you. You'll be laughing when the boat hits an uncharted reef. Wimp or macho man? Simple - wimps live longer, get to fish more and therefore become better anglers (and are usually warmer).
I rest my case.
Yours pathetically,

<font color='#000000'>Bad form especially on a warm day, although could help weight loss! Although if you far out then always wise to be prepared.
Our skipper on the Lady Helen - South Wales for example wears pair of shorts and deck shoes on warm day, good tan to go with it!</font>
<font color='#000000'>Is that the Lady Helen from Penarth or Swansea?</font>

<font color='#000000'>Swansea - although I'm going out on the Penarth boat tomorrow to catch some monster rays!!</font>
<font color='#000000'>Damned good skipper too. Will be out with him next on 3 May, with the lads from Brecon</font>
