Running barefoot on a wooden deck…How has Adina NOT been crippled by splinters already?
All old-time sailors were barefoot. It gives better footing on a wet, slippery, wooden deck.
Calluses can build up awfully thick. It just isn’t seen that much in modern life.
That deck get’s swabbed regularly. It’s pretty smooth.
