I am going to the Hawaiian islands at the end of June and was planning on getting myself a 3mm Elios suit made, but have since found out that they wouldn't be able to make one anywhere near in time (too much demand, no surprise there :head). I have been trying to fathom wether it would be worth either buying an 'off the pegg' ready made size or wether it would be warm enough to dive without a suit. The thing is is that I have recently read the excellent Last Of The Bluewater Hunters by Carlos Eyles, and he said that when he was in his native Hawaii that they would dive without the need for wetsuits and that they felt more in touch with the water like that
. I would just like to know if anyone else has dived there in the summer and what there experience was like in this regard.
Thanks,
Gabe
