Water Temp on the Saint?

[DAVID DICKSON]

Anyone have an idea what the water temp is?  I don’t have a dry suit, just farmer john wetsuit and good paddle jacket and paddle pants.  Wondering if that’s enough this weekend.

I lost my thermo-whistle, but I’d guess it’s around 40 deg. Feels very cold to me.

I only use a farmer john wetsuit with a drytop and stayed warm last Fri-Sun. I even swam Sat and Sun. I don’t know if I’m abnormal though because I’ve swam at 35deg weather.

Thanks. Best not to swim if avoidable. I need my roll to be more dependable.

Agreed. I try to avoid swimming as well, but sometimes your boat gets lodged under a tree or you roll up from one hole and hit another hole with no breath left haha
