THIS IS JASON. SAILED ONCE IN WI. WITH YOU AND CHRIS. WHEN YOU SAIL MILLE LACS ON A BIG DAY DO YOU SAIL THE STARBOARD? WHAT KIND OF PROTECTION DO YOU USE TO FIGHT THE ELEMENTS?

Hey J, I do sail the starboard (we'll that's the only brand of sailboards I have - sucker for marketing I guess)

As for protection, I have used the Bare Polar Dry. Larry at Scuba Center just posted something about a 299 price. that price rocks.

Now I have the Kokatat gortex bag suit. They are expensive. Here's my 2 word review of the suit:

Get one.

I've always said that when I grow up I will drop the cash and get the Gortex version with the pee dry zip. That suit looks like the cat's meow. Other good baggies are the Barefoot International and the OS Systems. The Bare is a great half Neoprene and Half baggie suit. Best of both worlds. And there aren't too many options anymore for full neoprene drysuits. I just picked up a ProLimit that looks and feels great. We'll see how well it performs. ONeill, I think discontinued their very successful Oasis drysuit.

There may be more info in the Knowledge section.

yea, I liked the idea of the zipper relief. Oh, just one more thing. I got my suit by looking at the closouts and other stuff. I got an extra large and can attest that it will fit a body size 200lbs to 250lbs. it will for sure fit smaller but 250 is about it.

I know that from experince.
