If the weather temp is in the seventies and the water temp is 42, what do you wear?  The recent news of a kayaker in Lake Superior dressed in shorts and shirt who died got me thinking about what others wear versus what you should be wearing.  I've worn neoprene in the summer and got very overheated.  I get overheated in my Goretex drysuit when it's 50 degrees out.  I was just curious what others think.
