This is a very important topic, as "dress for immersion" is known to be a steadfast rule for responsible kayakers.

I see talk in this thread about not wanting to or intending to get wet - that is a dangerous place.

None of us want to or intend to get wet, but we all know that if shit really gets bad out there - weather, gear failure, body failure, wild animal... - if it gets serious and we are in the water then we need to have dressed for immersion, or we have a good chance of dying.

Dressing for immersion means being in the water for more than a dunking or wash cycle.  I feel that the only responsible way to assess how to properly dress for immersion is to look at it like I've described here - what will save your ass when you do end up in the water for 5, 10, 15, 30 minutes or even more? 

Drysuits are great, but they don't offer enough insulating properties to keep you warm when you're in the ocean at 50 degrees or so. 

Wetsuits do offer the protection, but it's not that comfy sitting in a wet wetsuit all day.

I wear a wetsuit under my drysuit much of the time.  Since the wetsuit doesn't get wet it's nice and silky and dry against my skin.  The drysuit blocks the elements as well as the fish slime and bait!

What we don't want to do in this sport is get complacent regarding what we wear and what we are really prepared for.

End of soapbox.
