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.

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!

I don't think it's thick enough for that. You probably want a marine type canvas like they use on boats

Depends on size of towels and how many. It would look nice for that though.

This Turkish towel is multi-functional. It can be used as a towel, an outside blanket, wrapped like a sarong, and many other uses. It is thin, soft, and dries quickly. I am using mine as guest towels for the pool. They take up much less space than beach towels.

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.

Not at all as soft as a diaper but very absorbent, I use mine as kitchen towels, they are finished.

I have found them to be very absorbent. They are very cushy and really soak up water. Also, btw, using less fabric softener (I use half a sheet instead of a whole sheet) can make towels more absorbent.

Yes but your towel can't be super thick... If you have an absorbent thin towel I think you would be fine, but if you want to take a big towel and a lunch and drinks and your suit it would be pretty crammed.

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

It is a towel/blanket. Supposed to be pretty absorbant and dries quickly. That said, I've never used mine as a towel; I've only used it as a blanket that I bring with to yoga class. It is not a bathrobe--not sure why they would mention that?

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 depends upon your intended use. I bought them to clean windows, glass, and mirrors - for that purpose, they work great, and are as good as I've found (IMO, better than microfiber, etc... for that use).If you're looking for a towel that absorbs, I'd go with a good microfiber - search Amazon.

The towel is very plush and absorbent, yes. I've only washed mine a few times but so far they've remained soft, plush and absorbent.

If you are looking for something light to wear over a swim suit to block the sun then yes this would be OK. And it would dry fast. Wouldn't recommend it by itself in place of a bathing suit. Wicks well. I have the white one and it is not very forgiving. Sports bra shows easily through it. Regardless i love the shirt for hot, humid runs. Works well for that.

I would say no. They are pretty stiff and too firm.more rubbery than spongey. Not absorbent at all. I don't use mine.

It is made of plastic, I wouldn't say it hard plastic, so the wind might move out unless you have it anchored down. But of I had beach towels, etc. often, I would use it on deck. It is small for sheets. I use it for hand wash items & swathes. Good luck!
