In Response To: Re: Cold in Southern California? (M. Hamilton)

: Kokatat is coming out with what I think will be a great product - A Gore Tex
: dry top with short sleeves - seal around the lower bicept. Should be great
: for California kayak surfing or touring when combined with neoprene pants
: or shorts.

This sounds like a great product for Southern paddlers. One drawback to consider is that since it will be used for warm air/cold water, you had better not apply sunscreen (necessary in Florida even in mid-winter) since it rapidly destroys latex gaskets.
