Got cold. I wished I had brought the down sleeping bag for top quilt but was trying to save weight and bulk. It seemed like I would sweat a little for some reason, then get chilled. I figured it was probably the WS reflector, so I may go back to my open cell foam pad (which is bulky) but only had to carry it from boat to camp site. It's a small boat (14 ft, 8 hp.) Caught some nice saugers! Or I just might ditch the whole pad idea. I don't know if one inch extra width in the shoulder area is worth the trouble!
