Had a buddy come up after 45 mins with me with blue lips and slurring his words.. so dry suit is the way to go locally, but I guess my extra layer of "insulation" kept it reasonably comfortable for me in the wetsuit.
with COVID really miss not getting away and diving. been a year since we did out liveaboard in the red sea

i want to go dive up in port hardy but just can't get myself to get in the cold water again to practice first
