Subject: More on gloves

Here in Indiana the water temperature is 52 Deg. F.; so gloves make good
sense.  An old cave diver named Steve Maegerlein told me about using thin
plastic or rubber gloves like you might wash dishes with.  The long
gauntlet-like cuf of the glove is secured on the armby an elastic band if
the glove is loose (this minimizes water circulation).  I have used this
on 60 min.+ dives and had the dexterity to use reels and take survey
notes with ease.  Just my opinion
