Hi Patrick,
Thy’re not cheap (especially the postage) but I invested in some Muck Boots from the US. They are real rubber so they dont slip on boat decks like the cheap PVC boots you typically buy in Australia. They are very comfortable and made for cold and wet conditions and to be honest I was glad I had them (after I had forgotten the purchase price) as I pretty much lived and died in them on my trip to Antarctica.
Cheers,
Carl
Where do you get good pelagic gumboots? from [Patrick Scully] [Permanent Link][Original] To: birding-aus@vicnet.net.au Subject: Where do you get good pelagic gumboots? From: Patrick Scully < scullyp3@gmail.com> Date: Tue, 16 Nov 2010 12:07:30 +1100 Hi All, I’m just wondering if anyone could suggest where to buy good gumboots that are siutable for pelagic trips in Melbourne? On my last trip the sea was flat as a pond, but the next could be windy, and some decent gumboots could be a blessing. Also any ideas about good brands of waterproof overtrousers would be much appreciated too. Happy birding, Patrick Scully
