Neckseals

We are a Uni club and about 3 years ago decided that it just wasnt
accpetable to use ill-fitting semis in the middle of winter.

So we started on the drysuit trail. Dispite no funding and a good bit of
bartering plus ebay, we have about 20+ suits, mostly Otter membrane.

We've (well Phil) has become a dab hand at all forms of repair.

But ............
Here's the problem.

Necks.

Yep we have a suit that will fit a tall thin guy and a shorter fat one.
Tight we can live with, but slack isnt nice and kinda defeats the object.

So has anybody any ideas how you can make a seal tighter.
Looked at the Apollo neck thing, but that doesnt work.

Not looking at a new neckseal, just making the ones we have a little tighter
on the odd occaision.

Any ideas?
