i have a semi dry that the neck seal has riped out at the seam. Can i sew this myself or is a dive shop the only option? it seams that i could sew it then put some seam sealer in there. any thoughts?
thanks
 
It sounds like it needs to be re-glued, then perhaps blind stitched. If it's all neoprene then wetsuit cement will to the nicest job. You may need to re-cut the surfaces to expose a fresh neoprene edge.

If you just sew it and then butter it up I would expect problems.
