proper clothing whilst canoeing

[Magnus919]

A mysterious envelope arrived from Germany today, provoked no doubt by my father who told me nothing more than "expect a strange envelope to arrive in the mail, but don't discard it without looking inside".

What rested within was a sticker, and on that sticker was profound wisdom.

If this aligns with your own philosophy, he tells me he found this on Amazon.

In the meantime, I'll find a good place to affix this for all to admire.

...way too many skeeters in this area for me to canoe naked! I'd probably scare anyone who saw me and it's most likely illegal (indecent exposure)

If one were going to, I think a cane seat would be best.

There is a canoe club called the 'Paddleing Bares' located in NJ. If you are interested.

I don't think the pattern of the cane imprinted on an already bad looking butt is good for anybody. I'd recommend rotomolded seats so they don't leave marks and can be cleaned with bleach.

I doubt I'll ever paddle naked, but I was in a rowboat with my pants half off once..

That's true. I've never liked those rotomolded seats since they're so hot, but they would be easy to clean. If naked canoeing became a thing, outfitters might have to comply with new health regulations.

this should be in the skin friction thread...

Canoeing at 35 degrees F naked guarantees small acorns

For most people I'm guessing Canoeing Naked is far easier on the eyes then SUPing Naked, Poling is another story.
