By mk from virgina on 12/27/2007 Best Uses: Dinghy Sailing, Sailboat Racing Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This is a great light weight top for spray and splashes.It isn't that warm but breathes real well. It doesn't do to well in the rain since the seals aren't taped so it will leak threw the seam of the neck gasket. But I love it over a wet suit or rash guard. I also love how it packs up small and light. I payed something like [$] for it and you can't beat it at that price. Much better then any other spray top i have used that was less then [$]For when it's cold or nasty out I have an amazing Henri Lloyd top.
By Kokotele from Klamath Riv, Ca on 12/26/2007 Pros: Durable, Good Value, High Quality Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Good value, functions well as intended
Excellent for on and offshore use. By Mike from Benicia, CA on 12/03/2007 Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Easy To Put On And Take Off Best Uses: Boating, hiking in rain, Paddling Describe Yourself: Weekend Warrior Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: An excellent paddling jacket that does double duty as a foul weather shell for hiking and all around outdoor use. Typical quality Patagonia design and construction with easily accessed pockets, and it can be worn comfortably over or under a PFD (personal flotation device). The bright orange color will certainly help make you more visible on the water. Whether or not this color is suitable everywhere else is up to you...
The only difference between this '06 piece and the current version is the Lotus logo on the cuff and label because Patagonia dropped that brand name for their paddling gear. Also, this is a full zip parka, not an anorak like the original Skanorak.
As far as sizing goes, I'm 5'9" 170 lbs. and the medium fits me perfectly.

By muddyfeet from Grand Rapids MI on 09/11/2007 Pros: Durable, Easy To Put On And Take Off Best Uses: Boating, Colder Water, Paddling Describe Yourself: Competitive Athlete Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: excelent when combined with spray skirt in cold conditions; kayaking. however the neoprene cuffs chafe a little, I imagine that is simply a result of the lack of use.
