A representative from Andark Diving demonstrates a layering system for staying warm on the water, filmed at the Southampton International Boat Show.Watch The base layer sits closest to the skin and wicks moisture away; a fleece mid-layer adds warmth while remaining breathable.0:27 Outer layers range from heavy-duty sailing jackets to membrane-backed insulated jackets filled with PrimaLoft, which generates warmth with fewer total layers.0:55 Wetsuits are covered separately: a long-john wetsuit paired with a neoprene top suits dinghy sailing, surfing, and stand-up paddleboarding.1:37 For dinghy sailors specifically, rash vests with UV50 protection work in warm conditions, while fleece-lined versions handle winter sailing; hikers or a neoprene mid-layer go over the rash vest before the outer dinghy top.2:57 Extremities — head, hands, and feet — require a beanie or fleece hat and breathable socks.1:21 The core principle throughout: add layers on cold days, remove them on warm ones, and match the system to the activity.
