Mine are of the neoprene ilk, which seem to capilate water, and are not
snug enough to function as neoprene should. Waterproof would seem more
efficatious. Any experience? Sources?

* My dad was just telling me about foresting in the northwoods in fall
in the '40s and afixing sheet metal to the bow of a big motorized work
canoe to keep lanes open in a lake he was surveying. Real men back then.
