seriously though why don't you look into hats...either a Giligan style hat,long billed, or straw hat....you don't have to rock the sombrero that was just a joke...my lady has a skin disease from excessive dry skin and she brings out her big Jackie O hat and it works great.

Osama Bin Avid?

I use sun screen and wear sun glasses.  I've already had skin cancers removed and don't want any more.  A good pair of sun glasses will help protect your eyes from UV rays.  A wide brimmed hat will stop the UV rays from above but won't stop the ones that reflect off the water.  

the ones that reflect off the water.

Quite a few people fail to take that into account when they are on the water.  

As for coon eyes, they don't bother me that much.  What gets me are the white stripes on the sides of my head and the big brown spot on the back of my head where the sun comes through the hole in the hat.

Use sun block.  Alternate between wearing glasses and having them off if it bothers you that much.

i wear a visor from www.kavu.com   they make wide brim hats to cover your neck as well as your face

3.  Stay out of the sun.

or you could go to Chevy's and say it's your b-day  ;D

Just stay home on sunny days! ;D

I jusy read this on another site as a tip

"To avoid the dreaded "Raccoon" tan from wearing sunglasses out all day on the water, here's the solution. Invest in rim-less sunglasses. With rim-less shades you can wear them all day long in the bright sun without fear of a funny sunglass tan-line.

As you can see from my avatar it's not a big problem for me ;D but I saw it and thought of your post. Stroz

I wear a government issued boonie hat.  Does the trick

Heh. Considering Im 80% Irish and 20% Sweedish I dont tan. I can manage to get a sun burn from a Half Moon. Since my Mother has had bouts with Melanoma Skin Cancer I wear and use SPF 40-50 and reapply 2-3x a day. Yea it keeps me pale white but after seeing what they have done to her, I dont mind being pale...
