Shelly in a 3mm. Even with a 5mm, for a long dive, I get rather cold
towards
the end, even in summer (being an old 5mm doesn't help). I seriously doubt
Lee would consider Shelly 3mm conditions either. :)

I said 'components'. Didn't wear a one-piece 3mm. But rather 3mm jacket
plus 3mm long john. Plus a hood borrowed from Strike. Big difference. 

Rarely used the DS in WA either. Simply adjusted my wet suit tolerance down
to about 18C.

When we were about to dive the Swan River, I opted for the DS again. But it
leaked. So I was first out of the water.
