Peter, my dry top has the same sort of two-layer closure Darryl's does, and I also never have trouble with the sort of leakage you describe. This would be an easy add-on for a sewer to achieve, by sewing to the inside of your drytop. If you use a dry suit, the same could be done on the outside, although it would definitely not be a fashion statement! Also, it might cross the front zipper line, depending on the extent and nature of your personal empanage.
