My objections to full drysuit are price and its too hard to get on and off.

If you get one with latex or neoprene booties instead of ankle gaskets, you
will find that it is quite easy to pull the legs on, and the zipper makes it
possible to slip your arms through the wrist gaskets *before* you pull the
neck gasket over your head. With a drytop, I imagine you have to do that all
at once. Also, the zipper gives you extra ventilation when you are ashore.
