OK we are trying to find out what people do to help reduce the smell in the gear and sailing clothes that seems to develop after sailing in salt water. We usually get home and soak the gear in fresh water and soap. This helps some but not completly. I had the idea of putting the gear in the pool but thought the chemicals might hurt the material. So what do you guys do to help.
There is a product sold in dive shops that supposedly eliminates the smell. David Strickland swears by the stuff...but me? I follow the Ding line of reasoning..."what smell?". It's just going to get stinky again and I'm not out there for a beauty contest (thankfully).
