A disadvantage of the Chotas is that they have a fuzzy lining, which takes a while to dry. Last summer my boots got wet on the inside while getting out of the boat, and left me with wet feet for the next 6 days of the trip. Even at home, after rinsing them, they can take a day or two to dry out depending on relative humidity and temperature. A thin fabric lining like neoprene booties or wetsuits would hold less water and dry quicker. -- Bob Hume *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
