i've always considered windsurfing counts as a daily shower.

my wife disagrees.

Swim in sea water or windsurf without washing in fresh water for a week and then discuss.

I stink to high heaven usually after a light wind big gear session - my rashie usually stands itself up to dry out after. Otherwise if conditions are a bit better you tend to get wet with all the spray and have the occassional dip and don't tend to smell so much.

you're right there sausage!

i guess i should clarify, it doesn't count if i don't get wet. i'm talking about getting wet, either from a quick dip after the session or by stacking it during.

i'm not so sure salt water versus fresh water counts either now i think about it. remember long weekends up at the lake left me hanging for a shower at the end...

My wife won't even touch me until I have showered after having been windsurfing!

But I understand where you are coming from.
