This is my first attempt to write, so please be gentle with me.
It started as an idea after joining AF and talking to a young lady from Thailand. Not getting much of a rise, I decided to create a story from it, with the desire to adapt it to my preferred route. This will have a slow build as a backstory needs to fill before the fun stuff can begin. So expect a slow first chapter but it will get interesting further on.
‐--‐----------------
After a second marriage ended due to death from cancer, I decided a major change was needed. I worked all my life in New England, with a working knowledge of the ocean, sailing, and a lust for travel, the time to move became a goal. At 6'1" and 275, I have years of hard work in lumber and tree removal, with a cabin in the White Mountains heated by wood stove.
I officially retired at 65. And it took a year to prepare my little boat to travel. My little boat is a 48 foot sailing catamaran from Fontaine Pajot. Designed for single person captain, the changes in made were for Captain's cabin to be able to have a California King bed and full bathroom with jacuzzi tub. The other additional extras was a built in restraints at the end of the bed in the ceiling and deck. A St Andrew cross and a padded sawhorse. I guess I should come clean and admit to being a dominant. And I wanted to find my matching sub.
The forward rooms were configured for dry storage on the port(left) and cold on the starboard(right). Extra sails, air compressor, fuel storage generator, engine, and solar panels stored below decks. That left plotting a path to Southeast Asia.
Infected with a desire to see the sites only seen in photos or video, I planned to go to Bora Bora, Micronesia, Japan, and then to Thailand over the next 6 months. Ending in Australia, diving the Great Barrier Reef was the end goal. Having learned SCUBA in New England, you can dive anywhere. It takes less equipment. All of this is ready below decks as well. Off we go.
The planned sail from Portsmouth, NH to Key West went easy enough. It made for a great shake down cruise on how the boat handled. A few minor fixes and off to Panama and the canal. Then across the ocean and end up in Micronesia and Truk Lagoon. Spending a few days there, my plans change to head directly to Japan via Guam and spend 2 weeks there. Then head down to Thailand. My changes were due to a conversation with a young woman on reddit. Having been amazed ofbthe beautiful women of Southeast Asia and of Thailand in particular, I struck up conversations with several ladies claiming to be living there.
Now, before you start giving me grief on ladyboys and the like, I am very heterosexual sexual male, and I am not just looking for a one night stand but a permanent first mate. And not a child. I'm looking for someone who was had enough in life to deal up front and open with me. I'm not a sugar daddy, but under right conditions, you could call me daddy. But you might get a spanking for correction.
