Shirts and boardshorts

Two questions.

1. What is your favorite boating shirt, either with or without sunscreen protection? Currently I enjoy the O'Neill 24/7 short sleeve. Loose fitting and provides a level of UV protection. I am wondering what else of quality is out there.

2. At 6' 3" I am in need of boardshorts that are longer than normal. Most have an outseam of 21-21.5". I prefer nothing less than 23.5" otherwise they barely touch the knee. Then when I sit I look like I'm wearing my dad's swimsuit from 1973. I don't want to be that guy. I did find the websites http://www.cirewear.com/ and http://www.ten-80.com/store/home.php but I'm interested if there are others who sell extra-long boardshorts.

I think our styles may be a little different.

Columbia PFG shirt and patagonia trunks w/ 8" inseam for me (I am 6'2"). I hate shorts that touch the knee.

I guess I am your dad from 1973.

board shorts

I buy many different brands but usually all comes from sun ski and sports. They may have a location close to you? I like the long shorts too.

My favorite boating shirt is my sleeveless MC shirt. As for the boardshorts, I agree with you LaRue, don't want them too short. Gotta have room for "the boys"...

You can find boardshorts that touch the knees from any of the major wakeboard/surfing brands. OAkley, Hurley, Oneill, Billabong etc.

And who where's shirts? Shirts are overrated haha.
