[Paddlewise] Spray skirt recommendations needed

Paddlewisers,

I've been paddling with a neoprene skirt (the same one I use on my WW boat,
actually) all winter, and now that it's starting to warm up some down here,
I'd like to get something else for warmer weather.  The hitch is that I'd
like one that's perhaps a little more comfortable (in fit and temperature)
than the neoprene (mine's a Perception/Harmony LC-1), but still has a secure
fit so I can practice sculling and rolling without filling my boat full of
water. The nylon skirts I've seen in the catalogs don't look like they seal
all that securely. My drysuit doesn't have a skirt thingy to block water
coming in like some have, so the only thing over the skirt will be my PFD.

Any recommendations? Price isn't really any object, as they all seem to be
withing $40 or so of each other.

Thanks!

Steve
