Would this make a good towel to place over the sun deck on a boat for the kids to get in and out onto? i need something absorbent.

I am very impressed with the absorbancy of this product. Also very compact and space is at a premium on a boat, so yes.

i think it would work great. someone told me that putting this on our fiberglass boat, especially the top part of the boat that is exposed to sun constantly, would prevent any type of fiberglass slivers. so far, it's working for us. good luck.

I believe they would work for that purpose. Very nice towels in my opinion.

Maybe a little, but if you leave it in the sun the water will definitely get warm. It's thin and meant to be very lightweight, so I wouldn't say insulation is it's primary purpose.

It's sturdy enough I think, but the rack is MUCH smaller than it looks. It's a good rack to put outside or in your bathtub if you need to air-dry a few small things like shirts, maybe bathing suits, stuff like that. Beach towels tend to be longer, and made of thicker material. They'd probably end up hitting the ground, or not drying at all if you needed to layer them. This rack probably wouldn't be your best bet for that use.

I am not sure if I am answering this correctly but they are very absorbent and not a thin towel. The weave of the fabric is nice and tight.

Yes! Just make sure you roll it up a little bit. The towel may peek out a little from the top but it shouldn't be too much over the edge.

Sorry...the ones I purchased are not very absorbent, even after washing. the matching washcloths are not great either.

These are not thick towels, but they're super absorbent and quite soft. So they'd work well with little kids.

Love your creativity! It will be a little tight... Maybe don't buy too plush a towel and it would work?

I bought the large and it is about the size of a bath towel but not a bath sheet which is a SUPER SIZED bath towel. It is soft and very absorbent but is thinner than a normal bath towel. It will keep you covered. It would be good for the beach but probably not big enough to lay on.

I have not used one of these towels before << disclaimer, but i have done a lotttt of camping and i think you're going to want a towel that is a bit more robust. If there's even the chance that it'll disintegrate and it sounds like it's paper thing, i wouldn't put all my eggs in my pocket....just a bit of friendly advice from a fellow glamper.

It's not a towel. It doesn't absorb. It's more of a scrub cloth. Think of a flexible loofa. Great for lifting dead skin.

Not sure. I found these towels don't dry as well. They also are not as absorbent.

Thanks for asking about the Guzzling Giant towel. Yes, it is suitable for travel. It is much more compact when folded or rolled up than a regular towel, and it absorbs water instantly and easily.When laid out or hung to dry, it will dry faster than regular towels, too. I think it will serve your purpose quite well.Have a great trip!

Ive never never it on a boat cover, but everything ive used it on (pack, tent) has withstood extensive use in the Texas sun, which is quite intense in the summers, has held up and after only 1 use, no fading at all. I would assume that it would work well, might take a liberal coat though, also you might want to think about getting a couple bottles depending on the size of your boat

Yes. I like them very well. A great deal for the money. One reason that towels lose their absorbency, is due to fabric softener, which coats the towels and they are no longer absorbent. If you stay away from the fabric softener, they will last a long time.
