Does anyone out there have experience with Patagonia's paddling/sailing gear? I'm interested specifically in the One-Design Pullover and Pants. Like some of their other paddling gear it has "Stretch-coat" and "Velcro" seals at the neck and extremities (neoprene joints at the waist). Has anyone had the opportunity to test how well these seals work? I'm sure that they're not as good as the latex gaskets in "real" dry suits but I'm wondering if they're adequate for late-fall and early-spring paddling? The rest of the material is taped Gore-Tex so I'm sure that is adequately water-proof. This stuff can be had much cheaper than a full-on dry suit and I'm thinking of picking up a set to use (just spring and fall). I'd appreciate any feedback. thanks! *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - All postings copyright the author and not to be reproduced outside PaddleWise without author's permission Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************Received on Mon Nov 29 1999 - 07:12:14 PST
