Whatever tethers you rig up I'd highly recommend adding an instantly accessible river knife to your PFD accessories....entanglement ain't good either.

Yes. Entanglement is what got my sons friend on the lower walla walla. If his buddy hadn't rescued him................ He sold all his rafts and is afraid of the water now.

Yes, my Chinook accessory clip holds a river knife.
My original U-Boat with truck tire inner tube bladders had a waist belt on the seat that fastened with velcro. My last 3 modern tubes haven't had a belt.
 
Thought some of you might be interested in knowing that Sportsman's Warehouse (at least the one I went to in Federal Way) is having a 50% off sale on life vests. On the same rack with a bunch of cheap life vests were about a dozen NRS Chinook PFD and other NRS models. It wasn't clear that the NRS PFDs were also on sale, so I asked an employee, who had to check and found out that the NRS PFDs were, in fact, on sale as well for 50% off. Pretty nice to get the $159.75 price tag knocked down by half! I bought one NRS Chinook PFD to replace my really old PFD which is literally falling apart. (I have no relationship with Sportsman's Warehouse and receive nothing if you happen to buy anything there).
