Castor, I have to agree about keeping your head and neck warm above all else, if your head (the same applies to your chest area) is cold your body shuts down circulation to your extremeties (hands & feet) to keep your vital organs warm. In the days when I was a fanatical winter wavesailor the difference between having cold hands and feet was simply a neoprene helmet, once your head was warm, feet and hands were toasty warm again.
