In Response To: Re: Seeking: advise about dry suits. (Chip Sandresky)
I've seen a few paddlers going hypothermic in minutes once they wet exited with farmer johns on. With the farmer john in winter you better hope your radio brings help in minutes because you may be too weak to get back in your boat.
A few years back I wrote an article for Atlantic Coastal kayaker "The Farmer John Fallacy". If you send me your mailing address, I'll send you a copy.
Believe me, the Farmer John won't protect you in winter. go for a swim, give it a try - if you dare!
