Most (PFD) Personal Flotation Device Types Only Serve a Single Purpose

New to the market are personal flotation device types that function more the just a device to float individuals.

personal flotation device typesThe Float’n Thang™ is a type of personal flotation device (currently not approved by USCG under Type IV flotation device) that is designed to function in and out of the water.  It comes with built-in beverage holders that fit most types of cans, bottles, tumblers (Yeti / RTec), as well as useful holders of personal items.  Perfect when venturing out on a paddleboard offering a place for your water bottle and other beverages of choice.

Amazing personal flotation device types that fit on most any paddleboard
Place on your Standup Paddleboard and go. The FloatnThang provides flotation, beverage holder, and acts as a booster seat.

Take for example you want to jump on your paddleboard and go venture out on the water.  In most cases with any seat accessory, you would need to fix or strap the seat to the board.  The Thang personal flotation need only rest on top.  The Float’n Thang multi-use flotation is designed to allow any standard safety leash to be attached to either arm, which then is attached to the board via the leash safety line.  Other personal flotation device types are strapped to the front of the board, making it difficult to access during an emergency.  For example:  Should the user fall off the board due to rough conditions the Float’nThang will follow the paddleboarder into the water, giving him or her instant flotation.  The other personal flotation device types are of no help to the user once he or she has fallen into the water, as it’s still attached to the front of the board.  Even getting back on the board can be difficult with flotation.

This custom designed individual flotation is made of solid closed cell foam, so the FloatnThang float never needs inflation, will never absorb water and will last for years.   Unlike other personal flotation device types, the Float’n Thang™ is also an amazing flotation for fun usages, as it allows the users to float in over 7 cool positions.

Considering getting a Thang or two and try some enjoyable floating.  Floating is proven to offer many benefits for in-water rehab and is a great stress reliever.   Be sure to check out the new website at www.FloatnThang.com  We also offer special deals on either www.PFDThang.com or our new site.   Use this code “Sandbar” for Free shipping and a 10% discount off (non-sale items).

– The Float’n & Boat’n Thang™ gets featured on Fox 5 morning show

Fox 5 News San Diego

San Diego, CA – Thursday, April 27th

When Doug Masi, the inventor of "The FloatnThang™", (short name), received an email regarding entering his new invention into the Response Expo held in San Diego, CA, he immediately submitted the details on his brand new invention that has never been on the market before. That was one of the main requirements to be considered for the event. Within a few days, he received confirmation that the Float’n & Boat’n Thang™ was accepted into the UIA (United Inventors Association) pavilion! The pavilion featured over 24 new inventions.

On Wednesday, the inventors were judged and questioned about their inventions. Only 3 winners would be selected to go on live TV (Fox 5 morning show) to present their invention to all the viewers. The Amazing  FloatnThang took one of those honors! Each inventor was given the opportunity to pitch the audience.   “We were told we would have about 30 seconds, which was not that easy”, said Doug Masi. They were tracked by a live timer.  Raoul Martinez (Fox 5 anchor) was very humorous and commented how he loved the name. He pronounced it perfectly!

The FloatnThang makes it easy for users to relax in the water while sitting upright, or floating completely on your back. Equipped with two convenient cup holders, the device can also be used on a paddleboard as a seat and offers a place to hold your beverages. It can also be used as a booster seat in a boat or used as a temporary boat bumper when docking or tying up with other boats. The FloatnThang can be used while paddle-boarding, kayaking, boating, and swimming at the lake or pool. The comfortable cushioned backrest and dual cup holders make it convenient for poolside or beach use.   One of my favorite features is having 2 beverage holders for any location including the poolside lounge chairs, particularly when there is no table nearby.   

The buzz regarding the FloatnThang™ started in early April at the Lake Havasu, AZ boat show.

Our 50 units sold out in under 3 hours. Many customers after understanding the benefits purchase 2 and 4 units at a time. The customers were especially
