Yes, my opinion is from someone that is overly safe.  I don't see any reason to skimp on $100-$150 for my life.  I suppose that sounds harsh, but it's just not worth it to me to question.  I use my old PFD's for non-whitewater activities.  The big variable is what is going to happen in whitewater, not a calm, safe buoyancy test.   Seemingly find PFD's have been shredded in swims in the grand.
