Wetsuit

At 15*, I am ok in a 5mm open cell inside apnea (2-PC, high waist pants) wetsuit.

Hi Marc, I see that you are in Lebanon, on the Mediterranean. 15 centrigrade water temperature sounds pretty warm to me. I would think 5mm would be more than enough - although [caveat] I too use an open-cell spearo wetsuit (for spearfishing using a snorkel not SCUBA), which tend to be warmer than a regular SCUBA wetsuit and I only stay down for a breath-hold at a time.
