Bottom temp was 80 when I was out with them Sunday. I was wearing a formerly 3-mil full suit (I've owned it since 2002, so by now it's a rash guard) without an issue. My suit's so raggedy a remora mistook some of the outer fabric for dead skin and nibbled a chunk off.

You'll have a blast on the Kyalami; it's definitely near the top of my shortlist of best dive boats I've ever been on.

Kyalami is the best. you'll love it. Bottom temps are around 80. I still dive in a full 3mm.

I dove there on June 13 and the water temp was also 80 on my computer. I just dive with a rash guard. I think suntan lotion is more important than a 3mm.

I dove Juno Ledges yesterday (Sun 6/23). It was 70d, Upwelling is here again!

How common are these chilly upwellings? I'm hoping to dive Jupiter maybe 1st half of September, and I'm using to diving with no wet suit (long sleeve shirt & trunks) in water 76 degrees & up. I've got a Henderson 5 mm Thermoprene wet suit; I'm guessing I ought to haul it along...

It was around 55 degrees below 115 in Jupiter on Sunday. that was my estimate of the temp anyway. Cold enough to make bare feet ache!

I won't be going that deep while I am there, but I sure hope the temp gets back to 80 at 70 ft. What were you diving that took you below 115? Were you diving hole in the wall?
