    We need some northeast winds to push in the gulf stream a little and warm up the ocean a bit . looking forward to the smell of coconut and fresh warm water wax , and the beach filled with freshly sun tanned bunns.

    wore my 5/3 all winter + 3hood, 7booties & 5gloves in ME all winter...40* water and 52+ air is feeling like a dream to me, out for 3+ hrs and was warm getting out so no complaints here...although there is nothing like the feeling of getting out with shorts & a rash guard.

    however, there's also nothing like getting out of head/ohead with a 10+ period...rarely happens in the NE in shorts & a rash guard right...

    Saw dolphins for the first time yesterday (Maryland). Good sign.

    VB water temps had been staying under 45 until last week, then things started warming up - almost daily. Could feel the difference each day I went out. Looks like we're 50, maybe even a little above, now.

    It's almost time to break out the 4/3! After wearing the 5.5/4.4 late fall and all winter it's going to feel like I shed 20 lbs. Maybe I'll give it a shot this week during the good swell we're supposed to have.

    Awesome spring so far, BTW.
