Here is my $.02 to the drysuit price question. The first cold morning you wake up in camp and instead of putting on a frozen solid wetsuit, slip some fleece on over your pajamas and put on a drysuit any costs associated with it are forgotten. I got mine about six years ago. I take care of it and it looks almost new - even after lots of usage. Neoprene is great, the first day. If you are on an extended trip man is that stuff stinky cold and uncomfortable. Interestingly, I think I have the only drysuit in the Netherlands. People are quite intrigued by it here. In Minnesota, in the cold months you rarely see a person paddling without one, seems to be the first thing people buy their second or third season paddling. -Patrick *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
