Hello all!
I will be diving the Spirit of Freedom (week long live aboard) in Cairns from June 25th-July 1st. Their website recommends a 5 mil suit for winter diving, however a friend of mine claims a 3 mil will be sufficient, and to purchase something like a polyolefin under skin in case it gets to chilly. Im used to cold water (diving Southern California in the Winter can drop the temps to 50◦, but at the same time I dont want to travel halfway around the world, spending a small fortune to be uncomfortable. So Id like to hear from those with a little more experience than I.
Thanks
Chris
