Hi Iowa,

The guys below may be able to sort you out.

As Drongo says, it'll depend greatly on type of craft.
I'm assuming it's an open boat, in which case there may be other options to D rings; homemade alternatives that may be worth looking into.

You may also want to determine whether you actually need Buoyancy bags etc. They're pretty expensive (again homemade options are available). If you're just paddling on flat water, you may be able to get away without them.
