Just got my core temp to normal. Fun stuff but my hands were trashed by sundown. A couple of the South Sandy crew paid us a visit. Caught a couple of surfable waves upwind at the point. Maybe a drysuit on the next visit. Good times!

Chilly!! I lasted a little more than an hour before the hands went. I was reasonably warm otherwise. So what's the ticket for hands? Dry gloves? :??

They make closed palm but my hands have always stayed warm with the open palmed and you can slide your whole hand out the opening when you need to use your fingers.
