Going spearing tommorow (to croatia mediterrenean) and outer degrees will be around 13°C. It's the first time I'm out in such conditions and I'm not worried about the water, I'm worried about when I'm on the boat (115PS). What should I wear over the neoprene (that I can go buy today) so I won't get cold. My neoprene is a classical one so no liscio/spaccato and it dries slow.

We won't be on the boat for longer pieces of time just short hops from location to location (like 5-10 mins max).

ofc I will wear a hat, but do I need something over neoprene for such short drives?
 
scrap that, it's not needed so quick, something came up with his kids, has to drive to their grandmothers tommorow or something :)

but still need the info, just not so quick :)
 
I'd just wear a rainproof jacket with a hood. You just want the wind off you. The suit will keep you warm other than that.
Have fun.
 
Len read the question mate ;)

Killa, like erik said anything that acts as a wind-proof will help stop the wind-chill. personally i would go with a thicker wind/waterproof coat to get the benefit of a bit of extra warmth too. If you have some waterproof trousers that would be good.
 
The problem solved itself as the boat broke down, and we had to drive to 1 location with the car.. :\

2 spearos in the water for 3 hours and we both didn't even see a fish that would be worth shooting - total shots fired = 0
