Re: Secret Pleasures Aboard Your Boat

Climbing the mast and looking around and down. While anchored off Spanish Wells in the Bahamas with water so clear that 3 meters seems to be not there. So clear you can see the anchor chain snaking back.

[QUOTE=anjou;795024]I like knowing that its so private I can take a shower without wearing my clothes AND sleeping naked too!!

Nah, only joking.

What she said...although it would be nice if my shower could accommodate two consenting adults. And, Miles on the box in the still of the night would be special.

Re: Secret Pleasures Aboard Your Boat

Securely anchored in a safe secluded tropical bay in Gin Clear Waters with a gentle breeze enjoying Fresh fish BBQ off the stern with my Good Lady together with appropriate beverages followed by Soft Fresh Juicy Mangoes eaten slurping naked and sluicing the mess off in the cockpit with a coupla' buckets poured over the head and then anyone's guess; mebbee a dip following!

Re: Secret Pleasures Aboard Your Boat

Face it, it ain't the sailing, it's the life. Sailing is just one of the fun parts.

And you can still live the life getting ready to have the fun.

Tradewinds blowing, all sails up, autopilot under control, having a crap over the rail. Best setup ever was on Czarny Diament, with upper curved solid railing to support your back while maintaing your arse out over the water. Beats a little cramped room! Never had a blockage, even with new crew!
