I dive a Pinnacle Polar "Semi Dry" (oddly, I'm not semi-dry at the end of the dive) in Victoria on Vancouver Island (about 40 km south west of Vancouver). It was a little cold, so I've been wearing a 3mm shorty underneath. To be honest, I have done two dives in a day in the fall and been okay. I've been fine diving in low to mid 40s for one dive in the winter and I wasnt cold enough to end the dive early. The worst part was getting out in the cold air, and its not usually that cold here in August. Also, despite all the dry suit advocates, there are still a lot of people who dive wet up here in the summer. I suspect you might get away with it for this trip.
Good luck.
Good luck.
