question about replacing a neck gasket on my Kokatat drysuit. I've had a
good prowl around the net, and NRS have a good tutorial on You Tube, but
I have a particular question that doesn't seem answered so if anyone
with experience can help I'd be pleased.

who has a drysuit with no neck seal, after Deb Volturno cut it off and
he hasn't had the courage to glue another one on yet:-). You there
Paul?)

> My question: It is suggested that when removing the old
latex seal to leave a 1 inch stub from the old one, and then glue the
new one onto that. Wouldn't that then leave the only connection to the
Gore-Tex being the old seal? Wouldn't it be better to trim it down to
the suit and glue the new seal over the old seal, but inside the suit?
