I'm a Texas guy and consider winter weather to be the week the A/C only turns on twice. I came across this video on youtube and thought of ya'll (translated into you guys) up North. I thought I was cold when the water got in the 60's...my hats off to you guys that push it.

Hi : I often thought about purchasing a good dry suit & sailing my P-19 cat in the Winter ,but i can't find any crew.
I put my cat away in mid Nov. & do alot of "frost bite" sailing from Nov.-April on my Flying Scot. Living in Brooklyn , I get alot of great days to sail out of Sheepshead bay on the Ocean!

WHAT DID YOU DO ! (Wife)
Hey rebell, I'm in San Marcos. sail mostly on Canyon lake. Was fishing the other day up the Guadalupe when I took the dive...Steel toe boots, jeans. I ended up fishing in my skivies till the jeans were dry. Thank goodness I was well up river cause I looked hilarious. Insult to injury was when the girlfriend pulled in the large mouth bass...and I got nothing but a funny tan.
