: I have no advice to offer you, Vivian. I am sitting here at work
: reading your thread and started to wonder why it's called a
: "wet exit". If you are in a kayak, any exit while on
: the water is bound to be wet. Please, anyone, if there is such
: an animal as a "dry exit"...chirp in. In my
: experience, all exits, even just getting out after a nice day of
: paddling, have been wet. No wait, I got this one myself. When I
: paddle during temperatures of about -10 C, all exits are not
: wet, they are dry...well, as dry as exiting onto river ice can
: be.

: Robert (Wa)N(ts to know) Pruden

Ah Robert,
Wear a drysuit and all exits are dry. :D
