I've just taken a drysuit class, and so far the only suit I've used is a rented White's Fusion Tech. I live on Lake Roosevelt, and most of the water I would dive in the area is pretty cold all year long. The last dive we did the water temp was 39 degrees! I don't know how much drysuit diving I will end up doing so I don't want to spend big bucks to buy a really nice system only to find out I don't use it much. On the other hand, I'm a 4 hour round trip drive from the closest rental option, and renting even for a few dives a year is impractical. So, I'm looking for a used suit that will get me up and running for now and give me time to see if it's something I end up using a lot.
So, I found this on Craigslist: Apollo DrySuit 4.0 EX
I know it's an older suit, but the seller says it only has about 30 dives on in, and is in good condition. I'm thinking of having someone from the dive shop check it out for me. If it turns out to be in reasonable shape, and a good fit, does that price seem reasonable for a suit with undergarment?
I know I could find a lot more options in the Seattle area, but that's a 6 hour drive one way!
I do appreciate the help.
