Toggs for Sproggs
My 2 girls are always complaining of the cold at this time of year when on the boat. Does anyone know of a good but cheapish drysuit or fishing suit brand for kids, or have any other suggestions as to what they could wear?

vince - what age are they? we got some excellent (and although it wasn' cheap it wasn't extravagent either) ski suits for our todler from littletrekkers a wee while ago.
I also noticed the other day on the crewsaver website they do "spraysuits" for kids in the same colours as my cosalt flotation suit - so next year we might have "team colours"!

Hi Polwart. They are 12 and 8. Just had a look at the crewsaver site, i might not get anything for the eldest on there, but for my youngest the all in ones look really good. Looks like a drysuit for the 12 year-old then!£££.....?

ahh... too old for the littletrekkers stuff then. (Thought they might be older if they were tough enough to go out at this time of year).
Drysuits are pretty expensive - for something they will grow out of pretty quickly especially if they don't go in the water in cold weather. I am sure I have seen childrens flotation suits (around 60-70 quid) somewhere. If I can find a link I'll post it...
how about :

Why don't you give them a good coating of 'deep heat' before you go out?

What size do you need for the 12 yearold? I might well have a ravenspring to fit. You'll prob have to get it new boots though as the smallest I've got has size 6 boots.
