I have used a gore-Tex suit in my kayak instruction business for the last seven years and it is still fine. It is in ocean/salt water 40-60 days a summer, air temps between 35F and 75F, water temps between 34F and 50F,rain, sleet and snow to warm blue sunny skies. I may be in the water 5-45 minutes at a time, it has crawled up and down/in and out of kayaks demostrating various recoveries and rescues hunbdreds of times. I use the coated nylon suits for the students and they have held up well too. Randy
