IIRC the anomalous expansion of water. Why pond life continues to
exist when the surface is frozen.

 

I'll set 'em up, you knock 'em down.

I thought that too, but ITYF it's a bit more complex than what we (or at
least I) was taught.

I was given a T-shirt with effectively that[1] on it. Not really
desperately funny, I felt.

Fairy nuff. As I said I was just going on my dive training memory from
the 80s when we were told 4C was a cold as you could get. It's stuck
in my head since.

 

Folks I know have been ice diving, something I fancy sometime and I am
pretty sure the water temp just under the ice is -1c. This is the kind
of diving where you take a chainsaw to cut the hole & stirrers to stop
it refreezing.

 

I tried around a month ago surfing near Croyde in Devon using my 5mm
wetsuit. I lasted about 15 minutes although several people were in for
an hour or so.

 

Interesting. As I said before the 4C thing has stuck in my head for
over 25 years now. And about a decade ago a mate went diving in
Antartica. He said something diving in 0C and I told him the 4C story.
He did go down there and dived through holes in the ice withe leopard
seals (lucky bastard - got another mate about to leave for a year down
at Mawson too, I'd love to get down there) and he confirmed the 4C
thing. So I'm buggered if I know now. There certainly is shit going on
at 4C but from what you guys have shown me, obviously at can go below
4C.

You've destroyed 30 years of dreams

 

The North coast always feels colder.

 

It was fine, of course being a weekday there were only at most 1/2 a
dozen there.

Sounds like Wraysbury, now that is shite viz from the silt bottom.
Come within 3 metres of it and it stirs.

Search their website and you'll probably still find a picture of me
somewhere. Suit is back with Dennis at the moment for new boots[1] and
a pee valve. Should be finished by the time I get back home.

It was much better. So much so that I ordered some, I expect to
getting into will take a bit of practice. Seemed a bit clumsier to
start with but after 20 mins still felt the same, whereas my 5mm wet I
was losing feeling by then.

Usually do the return to shore if off a Rhib. Generally don't catch 2
slacks in a day son #2 is usually a drift. Look like I'll be mainly
doing HB this year. Just sent of £400 and that's only the deposit
cheques, and a;ready booked and paid in full for others.


[1] Found a split on day1, aquasure and gaffa tape worked fine as a
temporary repair. I've gone up to size 11 so I can get more socks on.
