Don't sweat it Bill. I was born in Ohio but I've been in Cali since "72." I STILL have to do a double take every now-n-then to question if what I just saw was really what I just saw.

Medical supply companies (and probably larger dept. stores and pharmacies) sell washable, reusable "Underpads" - and they work GREAT in my car to protect the seats from moisture. I'm not talking about diaper pads - - the underpads I use are durable, 34" x 36", flat, absorbent pads that are plenty big enough to cover the seat (and around the front where the back of your knees would hit, and even partway up the back of the seat). The pads I use are made of absorbent, quilted material with a waterproof backing. They're nearly as soft as a towel, and easy to tuck-in and place on the seat.

Some people create their own reusable underpads from vinyl table cloths with flannel backing, or shower curtain liners covered with a flannel sheet - but for the cost, I think the commercially available underpads are great.

They can be thrown into the washer and dryer, and can be kept neatly folded in the back of the car. They've also come in handy for times I had to crawl under the car, or had to bring a slightly leaky bag of crawfish or shrimp home from the market.

(It's easy to get past their originally intended use.)

Have some one else drive your truck and trailer from the ramp to the parking spot, while you move the boat to the beach. Then change before you drive home.

1.Use paper towels to sop up most of the water on the wet leather car seats. Concentrate on any puddles that may have accumulated.

2.Press the paper towels into the crevices, creases and cracks in the wet leather car seats to get at as much excess moisture as possible.

3.When most of the water has been removed, use a wet/dry vacuum cleaner attachment to suck as much extra moisture off the wet leather car seats as possible. Be sure to pay close attention to the cracks and crevices in the seats.

4.If possible, pull the vehicle into a garage. Roll all of its windows down, and place multiple fans around it. Aim the fans at the car, and turn them on at their highest settings.

5.Run the fans for at least 30 minutes. This will help evaporate any remaining moisture, and prevent mold or mildew from forming on your leather car seats.

There's a simpler way:


Seats will be dry in no time!

Quick dry napalm. Nice.

I normally sail wearing adult diapers this allows me to sail all day long and not stop for those annoying bathroom breaks, this also keeps the drivers seat dry on the way home.

I bet your car also smells like a nursing home!!!

This is really no big deal. I don't know about the man dress,,,Which does work,,, but I've been doing the oversized beach towel wrap since I was a kid with a board. Wrap it, reach under at the side opening and whip'em down. Grab a dry pair and whip'em up. No biggey.
