need2cruisesoon Posted January 16, 2018 #1 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Me, I prefer salt water as it keeps my skin silky smooth w/o the harsh chemistry of chlorine? The best combination obviously is for a median temp of 83 degrees and salt water for an enjoyable experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted January 16, 2018 #2 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Also prefer salt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mom says Posted January 16, 2018 #3 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Nope, don't care. I'd rather lie beside it than in it, so it's moot to me. I try to avoid immersing in water that other people have peed in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisemom42 Posted January 16, 2018 #4 Share Posted January 16, 2018 I haven't been in a ship pool for years, so no, it makes no difference to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare geoherb Posted January 16, 2018 #5 Share Posted January 16, 2018 I also prefer salt water because of its buoyancy. It's been a long time, though, since we've been on a cruise ship with salt water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6rugrats Posted January 16, 2018 #6 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Don’t care either, think public pools are sketchy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted January 16, 2018 #7 Share Posted January 16, 2018 In my case I have no preference but that is because I don't use the pool. Just saying. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillB48 Posted January 16, 2018 #8 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Keep in mind that a large part of the time even the salt pools have chlorine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted January 16, 2018 #9 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Doesn't matter to me, either. Both "fresh" and "salt" waters pools are clear and sparkling! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champagne123 Posted January 16, 2018 #10 Share Posted January 16, 2018 (edited) As long as I have on my track suit and lanyard, I am good to go in either one. ;p:'):eek: Sorry OP, I could not resist. You will probably never live down those two threads. Edited January 16, 2018 by champagne123 ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beachbum53 Posted January 16, 2018 #12 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Nope, don't care. I'd rather lie beside it than in it, so it's moot to me. I try to avoid immersing in water that other people have peed in. Ditto! Even a fresh water pool will eventually become salt water after several beer drinkers have been in it.

Rare BillOh Posted January 16, 2018 #13 Share Posted January 16, 2018 All the pools on ships I have been on have been kept clean and clear. To all of those afraid of life, thanks for leaving more room for me in the pool and hot tub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sail7seas Posted January 16, 2018 #15 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Makes no difference to me whether salt or fresh water as long as it is tested on regular schedule. I stopped going into ship pools many years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
