It's extremely important to have chafe cream in hand. When paddling for days with the same salt water soaked wetsuit without bathing, any chaffing in the skin is extremely uncomfortable, will slow your paddling, and can develop into sores that will turn into open wounds. I applied this anti chaffing cream almost every day before paddling under my armpits, my shoulders, and around my waist. This cream is actually for cyclists, but it works just as well for kayakers. If you have a cycling buddy it also makes for a great birthday present.
