Finally, proof I'm not lying when I try to explain to friends/family it's like there's more jelly than water.

Pucker time fellas (don't fall off!)

Rub olive oil on to the exposed skin and leave soak in for an hour before heading out on the water.
Works a treat.

I imagine in 30 degree heat, you would end up as pork crackle. I'm pretty sure the stinging blubbers would be the last thing on your mind.
