Now freaking kidding, I'm ready to dump my compressed neoprene and 
get a 350.  Speaking of which, I've heard there is a new product made 
from thinsulate and very stretchy.  Has anyone seen it or played with 
it?  C4 is a little too cold for 42 F water.  See, now I ask advice 
before I blow money.  Live and learn ;-)
