<font color='#0000FF'>Has anyone got experience of the CF200 by DUI?
I'm looking for a new suit, but am stuck between the Otter Britannic and a DUI

Any advice, as usual would be appreciated.

TIA

Rick

I`ve had one for about 8 years. There is a very slight leak where the zip is staring to wear, but other thatn that, it`s the dogs bollocks. A bit heavy, and it takes a while to dry but tough as old boots.

However, if you look in the DIR section of YD, there is a thread running about DUI suits. Some recently have leaked and they have ditched their suppliers (SDS, Aquarius etc).They now use Hydrotech as their sole supplier. The prices are due to be hiked to what I personally consider to be stupid amounts to pay for a dry suit. Hydrotech make their own suits, so whether or not they are going to offer the services that the old suppliers provided - I don`t know.

Otter have a good reputation so do O`Three.

Like I mentioned, for a fuller story, see the thread on the DIR section

<font color='#0000FF'>Yeah, I've been looking at the other thread. Just wondered if anyone had experience with the CF200SE specifically. Thanks Steve

I have one - just had the seals changed and the suit tested dry.
I find it comfortable in the water, and it does feel bulletproof.
It takes a day or two to dry out but that doesn't bother me.

Bought it second hand and I'm expecting it to last for a long time.
