I bought a Seasoft dry suit a few years back and I thought I'd let folks know about my experience. Hopefully it'll save someone else the same trouble I had.
I got the suit read all the instructions and bought the Seasoft products to take care of the suit properly.
My first dive, my right shoulder got wet within minutes of entering the water. By the time my dive was over my whole body was soaked. I tried making adjustments to my neck and wrist seals and entered again. Second dive was no different.
After a couple different dive days I contacted Seasoft about the issue. At first Bruce was accommodating. I sent the suit back. He admitted the seams were bad and said he fixed them. I got the suit back and went diving. The suit leaked in the exact same spot.
I contacted Bruce again and again sent the suit back. This time he said he couldn't find any problems and sent it back to me. Went diving again and it leaked again. Bruce swore the problem was with my neck seal not seating properly. I tried everything up to and including tying a tether around my neck so it was tight but I still got wet. I also replaced the neoprene seal with a silicon seal and still I would get wet in the exact same place.
Now when I attempt to contact Bruce, he no longer responds. Now I'm stuck with a $3000 leaky dry suit.
I've got about 20 dives on this suit and not once did it keep me dry.
A local dive shop told me after the fact that Seasoft is known for having seam issues so I guess I'm just screwed and have to go buy a DUI or something.
