Gary,
I ordered a dry suit back in 1995 from Eugene Dive Shop (see below) for
~$390. I believe the dive shop custom made the suits and it was great for
stream work. Other dive shops will probably do the same. Make sure to
specify no valve and reinforced knees.

Subject: dry suit for stream work
Greetings Fishy Types, I am looking for an inexpensive dry suit suitable
for snorkeling in small streams. About ten years ago we used to buy suits
like this from Camero in Austria (they were wind-surfing suits) but I can't
seem to find them on Camero's web site. These suits could be put on over
regular clothes and you could just hop in the stream and make your
observations. They were rubberized heavy nylon and could tolerate immersion
in shallow water without leaking. I don't want to spend more than $300 on
such a suit and there is no need for purge valves or any scuba-type
accessories. Does anyone know of anything like this? I'd like suggestions,
even if they're out of my stated price range.
TIA, g2
