hello boner,
                       Get a Dry Suit. You can find good entry level dry suits for a couple of hundred bucks. You will have a much more enjoyable extended season if you are dry and warm as opposed to wet and warm. Get a dry suit with latex or goretex booties instead of ankle gaskets so your feet are warm and dry too.

we whitewater kayak year round in Oregon and it's always in a dry suet. When it's 40F or low a wet suet just won't cut it. The coldest I have ever kayaked is 11F with four feet of snow on the bank of the Sandy River.
