i don't know how you all are outfitted, but i found a great wetsuit-maker-lady thanks to one of wes boyd's webpages. she does only custom suits, but her prices start at $150 for a farmer john/jane and the extra charges (titanium lining, pockets, extra tall/large sizing, extra zippers,etc.) are very reasonable. it is www.liquidfit.com. all of her suits are unique. i particularly liked the "woman tailoring" on the chest. there IS a difference between men and women, which some wetsuit makers haven't quite comprehended yet. my husband has been surfing for 25 years and he says it's the best-made wetsuit he's ever seen. plus it's extremely good looking, comfortable, and functional, if i do say so myself. oh, and alterations seem to be included with the purchase price!! kcd kathleen comalli dillon~friend, mom, wife, musician, violinist, writer, ailurophile extraordinaire ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "We can do no great things; we can only do small things with great love."-Mother Teresa~~"I find a lot of people like chubby 67-year-old girls."-Beverly Sills~~"I care not for a man's religion whose dog and cat are not the better for it."-Abraham Lincoln~~"Prepare to be assimila-----OOOOOoooooo, jelly donuts!"-Homer of Borg~~"I am Boris of Borg.

Now you have no excuse to stay off the water for more than two days in a row (or less)! :-) Melissa *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).

I checked out the site, and it looks good. If only I could justify getting a new wetsuit.....Maybe a jacket... Thanks for the tip, though. I'll save it for when I need it.
