What wax? Why do surfers have wax on their chests? To remove chest hair?
I'm determined to get to the bottom of this rash thing.
If rash is not a problem for catamaran sailors, why can't these things have some other name?
P.S. I just figured out that surfers put wax on their boards, but cat sailors don't put wax all over their decks, and most of us don't lie on our decks with bare chests, so why do we need rash guards?
Mary,
I wear rash guards becuase I want the sun protection it provides. I also like them becuase I sweat a LOT and the shirt helps keep my body tempature regulated, I don't get chilled like I tend to do with a cotton shirt. It also dries quickly adding to the comfort of the shirt. Plus they look very nice on the ladies... being very form fitting and all

Now I have an excuse to be sitting here (hurricanes suck)! Why are you at your computer on what appears to be a very pretty OH day!?
Put on your new skin and go sailing Mary!
