"Women Only"

Like I'm the only man posting in the "women only" thread. lol.

And...WE ARE NOT!!!! (throws a tempertantrum)
 
45 is cold. Damn cold.

The last diving I did was in about 63 and I was comfy in a 7 mil with hood and gloves. This weekend I'll be in brisk at the surface and damn cold at depth. I'm wearing a new semi-dry, I'll let you all know how that goes.

Oh you aren't being fair. You can't gang up on me. That's against the rules...somewhere!
I can dive in cold water...it's just cold :( lol
 
a farmer jane style? If its a 1 piece, you could add a hooded vest and/or core warmer. Yes its a lot of neoprene, but that is after all what keeps you warm. I've worn 2 piece farmer janes in 50 degree water and was not cold, below the thermocline where it was 41 degrees, I was cold. Make sure your boots and gloves are thick enough as well.

You never know til you try it. A lot of being cold or being warm is mental as well. Once you're in the water and get busy, you tend to worry a little less about if your cold or not.

Have fun!

Been there. Done that. Bought the drysuit.
