I am using the booties only when at sea, otherwise I am keeping a pair of outdoor hiking sandals packed behind my seat: they do not take very much space and with woollen and/or Thinsulate socks they are relatively warm even at near zero degrees gentigrades. A rainy weather is another matter...but during the summer it is not really aproblem :-) > I've had good luck with just sandals and fleece socks. Last winter I stepped out of the boat into some water so cold it seemed to burn. Soon as I got my stupid feet out of the water and back in the boat they warmed right up. Water sloshing around in the boat probably wouldn't have helped much though. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.gasp-seakayak.net/paddlewise/ ***************************************************************************
