My wife and I will be diving in the St. Lawrence next week (Les Escoumens (sp?)) and we have been told by the dive guide that we will need to dive Dry Suit because the water is THAT cold.. 1 to 4 degrees Celsius.
They say that some people choose to dive in 10 mil Farmer Johns but those people are few and far between.
Neither of us has ever dived Dry suit before .. I know there are buoyancy issues but are there any other things that I might need to be concerned about? (These will be fully guided dives and both my wife and I are familiar with Cold water (using the above mentioned Farmer Johns).
Or should we ask the charter if they can make the diving part of the Dry Suit specialty..(it would be the NAUI course).
