Post subject:  Is a Mustang Gore-Tex drysuit OK for sailing?
My crew is looking to buy a Gore-Tex drysuit for racing. I am familiar with Kokatat, which has lots of styles. She found this one: [url]Mustang Survival Sentinel Womens Boat Crew Dry Suit[/url]. I am unfamiliar with it. Does anyone have any experience with this type of drysuit? Is it suitable for performance Hobie racing?

Thanks.

I'm not familiar with that one either.
I purchased a drysuit last year from the UK, from these people: https://www.wetsuitoutlet.co.uk/drysuits-c-28.html

Much cheaper price that I could find in the US, shipping was inexpensive, and delivery was surprisingly quick. They also had sizes available that I couldn't find in the US; it seems that in the US, if you weigh 190#, they figure you must be 6-3!

I checked out the link... the dry suits from them seem rather expensive.... so then I typed in sailing drysuit in my browser and came up with many that are available in the US for half the price..... and the exchange rate from USD to Pound makes it even worse.

What sites did you find in the US? Everything I could find was $800 and up. And mostly diving suits.
