I'd almost go for a good 7mm steamer and a 5mm hooded vest... I hate my farmer john and never wear the damn thing. I also hate hoods, so the 5mm with a 3mm hooded vest works for me.
FORM PLUS STEAMER - SCUBAPRO-UWATEC
that one looks slick, I have a thermaltec 5mm and love it, well hate the damn cuffs, but love everything else about it.
HOODED VEST - SCUBAPRO-UWATEC
then do the 5/3 one of them? or any other brand really works

Dave, you need to get yourself into a dry suit. With a good drysuit and proper undergarments the season doesn't end in October!

I agree with Pat. Get a dry suit. Best diving gear investment you can make in the NE. More warmth, more dives, more fun.

Just recently purchased the Tilos Epic 7-6-5. I tried on several others before I found this one that fit well. Price was good also. I wear a hooded vest with it and dived at Morro Bay in October with no problem. 57 degrees. Good luck.OND

Made my choice... Aqualund Solfx 8/7 mm, now i will top this off with an arttic vest of sorts for the deeper dives, got great feed back from other sites about the suit, only complaint was prolonged dives at depth, well with any suit your going to have compression so thats why on the arttic vest. got a great price too at my LDS

Got the new suit in and fits nice , very thick seems it will be nice and warm, a arttic vest will go nice with this for deeper dives ! i dawn the suit for a picture tomorrow
