Probably going to go with some type of flotation device. Therefore, my
next question is can I put a small PFD like the Mustang under my
regular vest or should I purchase an inflatable vest. The mustang or
similar pfd's do not seem too bulky. I do like my existing vest.

I wouldn't put any self-inflating pfd under my vest. I think the vest
might interfer with its operation. You could, however, blow in a
couple of lungs of air before you go into the water. That should be
enough to keep you afloat without pulling the cord.

Ya gotta jump off a dock, James, with all your equipment on and see
how it goes. d;o)
