Sorry if my answer dissappointed you, but really that's the difference. The release tab was moved on the "marine" version to make it easier to get to and pull the tab while submerged in water. It's no less seaworthy then the land version, meaning you'll sink just as fast with either one.

I thaught the maritme version was a little thicker because it had floatation pads. :?

Actually the maritime version is a tadbit slimmer profile since it doesn't have an outer cumberbund like the land version.
