For the record, I've got the XXL - I weigh 12.5st (78kg), medium build, and it fits fine!

Hi mate, thinking of buying the yak, is it bulky at the front and does the back sit high enough that it doesn’t interfere with the seat? What’s your goto PFD. I like the red dry suit you wear, where did you get it and is it any good? I know many questions 😂
This one is my go-to PFD. Yes it's a little bulky at the front and I don't have a problem with the seat interfering. The drysuit is the Atacama Crewsaver. It's not an expensive suit as far as drysuits go and yes it's brilliant. The great thing about a drysuit is they stop cold water shock. They also allow you to do things and reach places you would necessarily be able to without one. I can't recall where I got it but there aren't many suppliers. A quick Google search should bring it up. They cost around £370 👍😁 I know, many answers 😅

Glad you said that, I’m 6 foot and 85kgs ish, saw a large on eBay for 200 second hand, was going to buy that but not now lol.
@@davidsimmonds2363 there's plenty of spare strap so I'm guessing a large would also be fine 😁👍
The high back also means it sits above the back of a kayak seat, making it a more comfortable sitting position
@@Soapy555 yes, absolutely 👍😊
