just wipe off surface water with hand and sit
been out in some very heavy storms, last one 3 weeks ago
there was no seepage in the seat 
i do sometimes clean the seat, which will add a thin protector, but thats likely to be worn off fairly quickly.

IAC, I'm assembling winter kit. Not that we have a winter...OK, then, a wet season kit.
