Was it the deck or tunnel that leaked. I find the typical nylon tunnel causes me to sweat buckets in Florida Summer conditions (And Spring, Winter and Summer). I believe the neoprene deck may even insulate a bit, keeping the heat out of the boat. Gore-Tex would seem to be an ideal tunnel material. cya -----Original Message----- From: owner-paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net [mailto:owner-paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net] On Behalf Of Kenneth Johnson Sent: Wednesday, March 24, 1999 5:54 PM To: 'Steve Cramer'; Darian Dunn; Paddlewise Subject: RE: [Paddlewise] Spray skirt ---------- From: Steve Cramer[SMTP:cramer_at_coe.uga.edu] Sent: Wednesday, March 24, 1999 3:32 PM To: Darian Dunn; Paddlewise Subject: Re: [Paddlewise] Spray skirt Darian Dunn wrote: > > What should I be looking for in a spray skirt? I think someone is making a breathable skirt, might be good for warm weather. Steve I purchased the Dagger "tropical" gortex breathable skirt and found it leaked (by the bucket) and was no cooler! Got rid of it quickly and went to Snapdragon which was dry and actually cooler with a nylon tube top that can be either left open for venting or rolled down around your waist for topless paddling. -- Test Scoring & Reporting Services Sometimes, you never can University of Georgia always tell what you Athens, GA 30602-5593 least expect the most. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.gasp-seakayak.net/paddlewise/ *************************************************************************** *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.gasp-seakayak.net/paddlewise/ *************************************************************************** *************************************************************************** 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 Thu Mar 25 1999 - 06:38:50 PST
