In Response To: Re: Sit On Top vs. Standard & Safety (Les Groby)

: The positive tone of the replies so far is a pleasant surprise. My impression
: has been that "real" sea kayakers disdain SOT's to the point of
: not considering them kayaks at all, and their users not real paddlers.

While I usually dress for immersion, a SOT would be too cold for the waters I paddle in Montana.

I can also dress for immersion of up to an hour (but I could go longer in an emergency) rather than having to dress to be comfortable being immersed all day long.
