Just returned from a week @ Capt Don's, Bonaire. Water temps 78 regularly so as usual I was in board shorts and rash guard, 5mm boots. By the end of the dives on day 3 (about the last 10 minutes of a 60-70 min dives) I got just a bit chilled. Not enough to go to 3mm wetsuit but chilled. Friend has a long sleeve Lavacore shirt he let me try on one dive. Toasty warm the whole dive and it didn't dive any differently than a rash guard. Once out of the water it kept me warmer as well with the wind blocking.
I'll be picking one up before my next trip and using that instead of a rash guard in the future. Reports from everyone on the boats that had them (we were a group of 55 that came down with our LDS) echo my findings. From jumpsuit to hooded vest to long sleeve pullover everyone was loving the lavacore!
