Chris in MA, The Grudens jacket that I refered to is called "SUND JACKET WITH HOOD" model 763.
Note that I called it "PETRUS" which is incorrect. It looks like the Petrus 762 but with the PVC & laminated material of the SUND 760. The grudens web site su#$ks does not have it posted except for a picture referenced from the link "new products".
763 Sund Jacket with hood:
100% waterproof pullover with a hood,
Zipper (7") w/ waterproof interior guard,
Fleece lined/the hood is also lined, soft light weight PVC,
Neoprene storm cuffs,
Pull cords on the hood and waist,
Double button breast pocket.
It kept me dry from crashing waves over the head at Phanthom beach spot #2 with the hood cinched tight and wading at spot # 5 w/o overhead waves. The possibility is still there for a little water entering around the face but over all it suits me fine just cinch hood tight.
This jacket is a meduim weight and will cover the cold temps. (w/ appropiate layering) and the warm temperatures. Those warm nights are not as warm as you think during the wee hours at the waters edge.
However, I prefer a similar lighter jacket for those "very" warm nights but you can still hang in tough with a wicking under layer.
