I am looking for binocs that can ride on deck, secured under a bungee cord, and survive fresh water waves and the occasional submersion due to rolling - without fogging and/or permanent damage to optics. Does anyone have a recommendation for waterproof binoculars? I realize that "waterproof" is a rather nebulously defined when discussing radios and I anticipate the same when discussing optics. I have read that "nitrogen purged" binocs with "o-rings" are waterproof. Anyone have experience with such binocs? -chris On a related note: Is there life (being able to tolerate lesser binocs) after using Swarovski's? *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.gasp-seakayak.net/paddlewise/ ***************************************************************************Received on Tue Aug 25 1998 - 12:32:41 PDT
