Sail naked!

Of course you'd had better be in warmer climes. I found that when I lived aboard off Maui, the local sailors all, male & female alike, sailed without clothes & I never saw anybody getting sick & I did see every-body. No tan lines, no wet clotes to deal with, no worries, lots to eat & drink, no losing your contents over the side & no yelling into the wake. I was very surprised the 1st time, I was on a 47' cutter with a crew of about 20 I went below, by the time I came topsides no one was clothed. I had no choice I was sticking out like a sore thumb. All was well after I derobed though. I didn't feel ill at all but then I hardly ever did.
