Hi Bill,
Mustang did the MAC deflatable wings in 1988 with a retail version in 1997.
I still have my "floater coat" from the mid-70s.
The high end unit with a "beavertail" to delay
the onset of hypothermia, developed in
conjunction with a research team at University of Victoria.
Check out the timeline. Especially 1968, 1977 (my
coat) and 1983, pretty interesting eh:

Wow. The Mustang auto-inflate @ 130USD. And
aren't these the guys who invented the things for small vessel use?

I have both West and Spinlock harnesses on my
boat. IMHO the Spinlock is much better and
certainly is more comfortable. The West Marine
version is still way better than none if you
want to save some cash. I bought the cheap one
and then my lovely wife got me a Spinlock for Christmas J J

Just a note about the Spinlock harness, which
most offshore sailors think is the best harness
going: I have spoken to the company reps and the
reason it's not CG certified is that the process
is so long and expensive that it isn't worth their while.

Just fyi..if you are planning to use it for
sanctioned offshore race it would need to be
modified to have leg straps. Otherwise it is
very similar to mine and is very comfy for round the buoys and coastal.
