At last a sensible question /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Stark bollock naked is my preferred , but not sure how the skippers would react if I emerged tripping over it in the morning , so shorts kept handy

 

[Lakesailor]

I concur. Don't like getting wrapped up in stuff and having draughts un unprotected places.

Got short legs, have you? /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif


S.B.N. is my choice, too. No chance of tripping over it, especially with the mild weather we've been having.

Need to be careful not to 'take someone's eye out' on occasion, tho... /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

Cold weather makes little difference when you need to go , though the tripod effect helps in a rough sea

A couple of deluded posts there then...........

Ruin a blokes dreams why don't you , I can live in hope after all

I bed down on the boat wearing just a life jacket and sea boots. Occasionally, I may don a tam o shanter, but it really depends whether I am feeling a little Scottish that night.
By the way, she says 'Hello'.

I always wear my crusty Musty Nightie, breathable with a built in inflatable aid in case of nautical disaster. A nightcap, is also a musto, with a wee built in radar reflective bobble at the end.

I wear very baggy PJ, very comfy that are too /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

[Cotillion]

My choice is to wear Mrs. Cotillion.

 

[catmandoo]

I wear boxer shorts but often get them on wrong way round so have problems if I need to perform in the middle of the night.

best idea is to wear a safety harness so you can hook on if you have to go to the cockpit in the middle of the night

 

[catmandoo]

Is cotillion not a French dance ?

 

[catmandoo]

What does Little Scottish wear ? Interesting thought sea boots and life jackets . If so are they both automatically inflatable ??


New meaning to pull my string

 

[Lakesailor]

Be carefull you don't wear her out.

 

[Koeketiene]

Depends on time of year.

Summer: naked
Winter: thermal underwear
Spring/Autumn: as the mood/Mrs takes me

 

[snowleopard]

I prefer not to be encumbered by clothing in bed. I warn the crew of that and tell them I get dressed to come on deck if there's time. If they leave the call till the last minute I may not. Up to now I've always been called in good time up to now.

 

[alan006]

Its all a case of how confident I am with my shipmates. On some occasions I have removed my shoes and oilskins on rare occasions both.

blue satin, shoestring straps, mid calf. Satin is the best material, because you can rotate in a narrow bunk without disturbing the bedding.

I'm not keen on this bollock naked bit .

Seems to me that in emergencies one has to ensure one is ready to confront them . Winding winches , pulling on ropes etc comes a little too close to what I still consider precious .

Rope burn , strangulation etc and having to put a rolling hitch on JT to free him from a jamb in a winch is just not my cup of tea so chaps my minimum is to keep my assets well protected with whatever is fashionable enough to ensure that
