: 40 F water temps on Lake Ontario right now. They say he was wearing a
: wetsuit, I'm curious to hear how thick of a wetsuit and what kind and why
: he was out in 9 to 15 foot seas. The Great Lakes wind waves are square and
: nasty when they're that big. Wonder what he was up to.

: Keep us informed as the news unfolds.

Sounded to me too like he really wasn't dressed for the conditions. I wouldn't go out in 40 degree water wearing a wetsuit.
