Does anybody with a Kokatat dry suit overskirt carry to comment on whether it is worth the extra $$ (i.e., compared to the same model without the overskirt)?

I have one and wouldn't say it's really worth the extra money. A good skirt will work just as well. If you're going to spend a lot of time in the surf maybe. The problem I find is that the goretex is less effective around the waist when I have the skirt tucked into it. -Patick At 7:38 PM -0500 4/8/04, Joyce Family wrote: >Does anybody with a Kokatat dry suit overskirt carry to comment on whether it >is worth the extra $$ (i.e., compared to the same model without the >overskirt)? > >Tom *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).

Hej Tom The fact that you are asking probably shows that you don't need the overskirt. Paddling advanced waters, rolling etc it really is nice to have a dry boat Lenze www.havkajakcenter.dk -----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: Patrick Maun I have one and wouldn't say it's really worth the extra money.

I've got one. I find it reduces leakage down the body tube of the spray skirt. Not 100%, but much less leakage than without.
