Stank,

that's a pretty good recommendation to go with the fleece. I was caught last year doing a small keelboat w/ trapeze nationals and it was nuclear. I hadn't brought my drysuit (thinking - "geesh...monohull"). I went with my fleece suit and a spray suit on top and was amazed at how warm the fleece was even though it was wet and it was gusting to 27knots. We took several knock downs and got PLENTY wet. Water temp about 50 degrees and the air was about 55-60. I would probably elect this in lieu of a wetsuit - manueverability is still high and you don't get a rash from anything.
