My wife and I are on our way for a Mike Ball cruise to Cod Hole this coming June, and I'm confused about what to take for exposure protection. The Mike Ball web site does have a page with some climate data on it (http://www.mikeball.com/weather.htm), but this just lists "Great Barrier Reef". According to this page, I should expect 75F water temperature. That doesn't exactly fit my 3mm wet suit nor my DUI dry suit. Today I was in the shop where I teach, talking with the owner about getting either a 5mm or a 7mm wet suit, and he insisted the water at Cod Hole could not possibly be that cold. He so much as laughed me out of the shop! I know he has taken this trip several times before, though I don't know at what time of year.
So what is the answer? Do I need to break down and get a couple of 5mm wet suits?
