In '95 I had just started Cat sailing. One Saturday I was sailing with "surf socks". I left them unrinsed in the car overnight, and all the next day while I was at work. It was a hot sunny day...I was supposed to give a really pretty woman a ride. When I opened the door for her, the stench nearly knocked us to the ground! I couldn't believe it! Had to bag the offending socks, and open all the windows for awhile before we could get in. I don't think she ever got in that car again. Moral of the story: RINSE YOUR GEAR!
