With the rapid development of the society, boat trackers disappear in most part of the world. But in Shennongxi, Hubei province in China, the Culture of Boat Tracker is still going on. And what controversial is that they are naked.
As what a socialist said the “naked boat trackers” are products of history-the lagging transportation. And it should not be continue. However, some people give contradictions for this, either for sake of tradition or attraction of tourists.

What do you think? Should the “culture” continue? or please give your advice if you are interested in it.

GUEST21131 I think it is ok. I read a piece of news that the naked vocation is popular in some places in the world. And the fans of this club are mostly the seniors.
So, if this is the tradition of that scenic area, just keep it.

I don't think that all of them work naked.
Perhaps just a few. These guys have sun tan marks so it is obvious that they do work with their clothes ON more than OFF

When I was there they were wearing jocks, shorts and shirts but you can get the 'naked picture' pretty easily if you understand that this was the historical way to work. What about winter though. It gets pretty cold on the river and when you are wet and sweaty it would be freezing.

Good luck if you catch them naked...........

ha.. I agree. I cannot believe they work like that all year round. And I really wonder do the travelers feel comfortable when they see someone works this way?

This shot is obviously set up.
As Jabarootoo has pointed out, the white bum cheeks are a give away.
Not that a Sheila would be interested in this type of thing anyway.
