I love my Nigel Dennis Sea Anorak Extreme. It has gaskets on the wrist only. ND
uses their version of  Gore Tex called 'Diffusion', an English product. It was
a little cheaper than the Kokatat, about $216.00. Great configuration of
pockets & hood that drains and seals around the neck and waist without too much
restriction. The color is highly visible. The hood has an adjustable bill that
helps with peripheral vision. I get very little leakage even in rolling
practices. Here on the Gulf Coast of Texas I only had a few opportunities that
required it this year, combining rain with colder water--Saturday at the
Sweetwater Symposium was was one of them!
