BOATLOAD OF GIRLS CH. 3.1 -- From Her Point of View
For the last ten years, my husband Dave and I have owned a second home on a lake a couple of hours from home. We love spending weekends there and a full week or two during the summertime. We've since acquired a 20-foot pontoon boat that is great for boat rides, relaxing, sunbathing, and taking kids tubing. Dave wasn't as enthusiastic about buying the boat as I was, but he finally acquiesced. So, to reward him for accommodating me, on our maiden voyage, I got naked and let him take a few nautical and naughty pictures of me. We've both been having fun on the boat ever since.
We have invited several friends to join us for weekends at the lake, and one couple bought a home there not long after we did. Like us, they didn't buy a boat right away, so we've taken them out on our pontoon during the day, and at nights for romantic twilight cruises.
After having taken Kate and Bruce on one of our evening cruises, she told us she had invited her four sisters, and a couple of other friends for a "girls' weekend" at the lake without their husbands. Naturally she wanted to take them out to show off the lake itself. Since they didn't have a boat of their own, I immediately got the picture and offered to take them all out in ours.
A week later I learned I had an unexpected homeowners association board meeting on the same morning we'd scheduled the lake tour. Dave volunteered to take the "girls" out on the boat, while I went to my meeting. I knew Kate's sisters liked to party, so I couldn't resist teasing Dave about what kind of fun he could have out on the lake with them and the other friends.
Dave planned to take them around the lake, then stopping in our favorite cove if they wanted to swim, sunbathe, or just get in the water to cool off.
I had given Kate a few days' notice that I would not be joining them, so they knew to only expect Dave. I figured my meeting would probably last a couple of hours, or about as long as their boat ride, so Dave planned to pick up his "harem" at the same time I left for my meeting.
When I got back home, Dave was still out, and since I knew he'd packed a cooler full of beer and wine coolers, I concluded they must be having a pretty good time. I grabbed a bottle of wine and a glass to help the time pass. As I waited, my mind started to wander, and I questioned just how much fun those women could be up for.
Before I could let my imagination go too wild, Dave came in looking a little tipsy, and disheveled enough to give my crazier thoughts some credibility. "Sit down, before you fall down, and tell me all about it," I said with enough humor to not sound accusatory. I didn't offer him any of the wine.
Dave thought for a few seconds, and told me, "When they all came aboard, it was obvious that they'd already had bloody marys or mimosas and were already in a party mood. It looked to me more like a "bachelorette" party, and one that was well underway.
"Kate introduced us and jokingly called me their boat captain and part-time 'cabin boy.' I wasn't sure exactly what all that meant, so I was the good host, offering drinks and taking the boat out on the lake.
"Once away from shore, one of Kate's friends started razzing me about their 'cabin boy' having way too many clothes on, and the others joined-in demanding the 'cabin boy' should really be naked like Kate implied might happen."
"Well, what did you do then," I asked trying not to laugh too hard.
Dave went on telling me, "When I looked to Kate for help, she just shrugged and said, 'Hey, why not, we're all friends and adults here.' That got the rest of the girls coaxing me to strip for them."
"Well, did you?" I prodded.
"I wasn't certain how serious they were, so I decided to call their bluff and told them if they wanted to see me naked, they'd all have to have to show me their tits first."
"And did they?" I chortled while almost choking on my wine
"They turned the tables on me and instantly had either pulled up or down on their tops or shirts and bras and I had twelve perky pink nipples staring right at me."
'All of them flashed you?" I asked skeptically, thinking this wasn't something I'd expect Kate to do.
"Every one of them; then Kate told me to show them my stuff since they'd anteed up for me!
So, not to be a complete jerk, I stopped and stripped for them with the same cheeky attitude they'd shown me."
"How did you feel about being naked for six women to see?" I asked chuckling, while seriously wanting to know.
"As you can imagine I was pretty self-conscious at first, knowing I sure didn't have the hard body physique they probably envisioned for a cabin boy. But I have to tell you the thought of six women wanting to see me naked sure didn't hurt my ego one bit," Dave offered humbly. "Their flattery was very persuasive."
I hadn't realized men could face the same dilemma women would experience in similar situations: the tradeoff between the allure and excitement of being enticed to get naked and the fear of not measuring up to peers or expectations. It was a quandary I'd certainly wrestled with.
Dave went on saying, "We cruised on to our favorite cove, and since there were no other boats there, I invited them to swim or wade in the water. Then, being naked, I only half-facetiously suggested if anyone wanted to skinny-dip, this was a good time and place to do it."
"Did you have any takers?" I asked with a smile.
"Three shed their suits right away, and the four of us got in the water. It didn't take long before the others undressed and jumped in to join us. We swam for half an hour, got back on the boat, and after lazily drying in the sun the girls reluctantly put their suits back on. They insisted I stay naked as we headed back, until we saw other boats approaching," he almost gleefully announced.
"Anything else to report?" I further prodded.
Dave looked a little guilty, and added, "I was pretty sure that along the way several, maybe all of them of them had snapped pictures of me with their cell phones. I asked them to delete them, but none would even admit they took any. So, we all took a few group photos with me naked and them flashing their tits again. That gave me some balance of terror and I made them promise not to share photos or stories with anyone else. That was about it."
I took a few minutes to process the scenario, smiled slyly and calmly asked, "And how would you feel if I had taken the husbands or boyfriends out for a boat ride, and they'd wanted to see more of the 'cabin girl'?"
He knew better than try to say anything like, "it's different for a guy...." and could only manage to say, rather lamely, "It just felt right, and everyone was having a great time. And if the same opportunity came up for you, I'd be OK too."
"So, I can quote you on that?" I asked playfully yet pointedly.
"Absolutely," he swore, knowing only too well I had an excellent memory.
I was not at all surprised when Kate called me the next summer me to say that her sisters and friends were planning another reunion at the lake. And I was anything but disappointed when she told me they all would love to have a boat ride again. Not knowing for sure what Dave might have said about last year's cruise, she told me she hoped I would be able to join-in this year, and they'd gladly adjust their schedule to accommodate my availability. I couldn't be sure if this concession was to prevent an encore of last year's frivolity or wanting me to be part of it. After consulting our calendars, we confirmed the date and time when we were to pick them up.
