Boots and Gloves

What works. I know that leather boat shoes are not very comfortable the seconed day when wet.
I suspect they would be worse cold.
Same for gloves.
WM sells gill short and tall sea boots.
There are the expensive gortex models.

Any favorites

Personally, I like JetPilot brand Jetski gloves for year round use. They're close to indestructible...and very comfortable. About $15 a pair. For really cold weather, I have a pair of 3mm Neoprene scuba gloves. Completely waterproof and fairly warm.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
