I have a couple of Henri-Lloyd dry suits, and except for the latex now needing replacement, I can't find fault with the suit. It is an older design, the blue/white one, but it didn't leak and was plenty warm. They are about 15 years old now.

Thanks for all your advice.

I did end up going the cheap route. A member of my family heard me talk about dry suits and she took pity of me. She decided to just order one for me. So I'm now the owner of a Typhoon XTS Pro drysuit. I tried it fully the first time I wore it by capsizing while launching the spinnaker. Not a drop of water inside.
