[Paddlewise] Alternatives to neopren shorts?

Hi Paddlers

For a long time I've wanted to find an alternative to my neopren
shorts for a number of reasons:

o It's no laugh to put on neopren shorts on day two a trip, especially
during winter.

o After a couple of days paddling, the skin starts to get irritated
from the 'environment'.

o Once wet, it takes nothing short of a heatwave in the evening to dry
out the shorts.

Now I've seen two alternative offerings which looks interesting:

Navarro from Canada makes paddling shorts in so called Nav-skin. 

A number of companies uses Polartec 'Aqua Shell' for their shorts. 

Any experience with these? Especially as related to multiday
trips(anything goes on day 1). 

 best regards
  Peter
