I've dived almost two decades with the same 3mm full suit and 3mm Harvey's hoodie vest (I'm a creature of habit and don't dive often enough to wear them out). Recently I managed to leave the latter behind at a site and don't realistically expect it back, may it find a good home.
So--lingering in my closet is a 2mm (I think) shorty I got at a yard sale long ago thinking I might use it but never have, the occasion just never arose.. But--cheapskate that I am--I'm thinking that if it fits well over the full suit, could I use it for the same cool water conditions along with buying just a new hood sans vest??
I expect the answer will be "try it and see", but if you think it's a dumb idea going in, I ain't diving for the next few months til the Gulf warms up so I have time to take advice.
Thanks. Aside from being forgetful, it was a nice couple of dives off Jupiter and at Blue Heron last week. Good lemons and sea turtles out on the Area 51 reef area, and numerous fishies at BHB despite the recent fish-harvesting "incident" we have discussed at length on this board.
