Default Relaxing in my Wetsuit

It may seam as though the seas lovely and warm in Bermuda. Lovely yes warm no.Its amazing how quick you become acclimatised to the climate over here.When the sea temp is 74 degrees i start looking like an ice cube until now, yes i got my first wetsuit, and that means i can relax in the water at last, no more looking like i've got the DTs while detecting, no more rushing, and missing hits and these are the results of the day.
Fair bit of clad, 3 old English Penny's, 3 fake diamond earrings, 1 fake gold bracelet, 2 Silver rings, 1 Gold ring, and a partridge in a pear tree,well it felt like it at the time.
The moral of my story it pays to stay warm in more ways than one !!!

Wow seaslug, with hauls like that you will have that detector and wetsuit paid off in no time. Keep up the good work of cleaning the beaches.

I am considering selling the E-Trac, getting a waterproof detector and wading
in the Puget Sound... 40-45º F.

Maybe Mask & Snorkle too?

What kind of wetsuit would you recommend for our extra warm waters?
