Hey all you drysuit divers...
I've got to admit that the most insulation I've ever used was a 5 mil farmer john at 110' in a Texas lake in November.
On the other hand, I've been thinking of getting a drysuit for winter diving in the Gulf of Mexico and possibly for diving in the California current. Yet I know ziltch about drysuits except that they cost a lot.
I'm wondering if I can just buy a shell with little insulation for gulf diving and perhaps add fleece for pacific north west diving should I venture there. Is this possible or are there drysuits designed for kinda chilly water versus near freezing water?
Any suggestions for use in both?
Thanks in advance.
