I don't know what decision to make!! I am newer to diving but I have been taking it very seriously. The only thing I don't own is a exposure suit. I live in north East Indiana so the water is cold. I don't know if I should just get a semi dry suit for $600 or go with a entry level drysuit like the dui Yukon for $1500 or do a top of the line dui or fourth element drysuit for around $2,800 area.
Now here is why I can make up my mind. I have the money but to me I need to make sure I am going to get my money worth out of my purchases. My problem is I don't have any dive buddies! My wife dives with me but don't like really cold water. So she says above 50 feet or so. Or likes the tropical stuff. I would like to dive year round and do some spear fishing around here for trash fish. Maybe hit up the Great Lakes. It's hard to do some of that stuff without dive buddies.
What is your opinions on what I should do by a semi dry till I meet more people then maybe get a drysuit?
Is something like a dui Yukon a waste of money?
Or say hell with it and go all out and you guys come up here and dive with me ?
O one other thing after I buy the drysuit I will have about another $600 in under garments
