Coppertone Sport SPF 50 (in the blue bottle) seems to be the best I've found. It's used almost exclusively in the sailboat racing communities, particularly in sunny areas like south texas.

- hadlock 4y agoNot in my experience. The boat is a pretty active, highly dynamic place, you need a good grip, either on the boat to steady yourself, grabbing/working with lines (ropes) or working the winch handles. We wouldn't use it if it were greasy. EVERYBODY in the fleet uses coppertone sport spf 50. About six years ago I noticed that big box stores have started offering generic version in a similarly sized/shaped blue bottle, but can't confirm it's the exact same formula. It might be greasy for the first 5 minutes while it dries/cures but after that you don't know it's there. We usually reapply every 3-4 hours as we're in direct sun for 5-8 hours typically
