thanks for the reply.But i am also not sure about inflation pressure as
the best i can get is to push my thumb in and feel for pressure, but a
thunb test seems a bit vague.

I live in the Southern US, and it gets hot here, too. WW canoeists with
air bag floatation have the same problems. On the water, evaporative
cooling will probably take care of you. On land, don't leave it in the
sun if you can help it. Drain out some air ahead of time if you need
to. Otherwise, the air bladders will do it for themselves, but
catastrophically.
