It was a beautiful day on the water. There was little to no wind or clouds. It was also hot. Since I've retired I get to spend a lot more time out there, especially since I volunteer my services to a local marine rescue group. I help by sometimes being on call but for the most part I help with surveys of the local waters. This quarter we have to count Manatee; an endangered, but recovering, species in my part of the world. I remembered a good fishing spot from my youth that seemed to have a fresh water spring in it and decided to see what was there. It was a horseshoe shaped island out in the bay and I knew I could find it again. It was once my secret Snook hole. Manatee love fresh water sources as well as secluded and quiet places, just like Snook.
The mouth of the horseshoe had nearly closed and I had to watch my depth carefully as I motored in. I quickly ran out of water and had to shut my engines down and pull them up. I activated my trolling motors and crept in. The last time I had been there was in a Jon boat; not a 24 footer with a deep vee.
I found the spring and sure enough there were 35 or so mature Manatee cows and half that many pups lolling around. I marked the coordinates and counted as best I could. I wrote it all in my log book and prepared to spin around and leave, thankful for the dual trolling motors. I heard someone calling out, looked around and saw no one. Sound carries far across the water on a windless day, and I thought it could be coming from the main shore, but then I saw a flash of foreign color through the mangroves. I carefully maneuvered around a little bend.
A woman was there waving and yelling at me wildly. She had a jet-ski pretty high and dry on a little sand spit, appeared to be in her thirties, and was wearing a lime green bikini top with a white bottom. She filled both out very very nicely. I got as close to her as I could without running aground. "How did you end up there?" I asked. She yelled that she had been there awhile and when she went to restart found she was on empty. The tide had run out and now she was also stuck on the beach. She asked if I had any fuel and I told her that I was carrying about 80 gallons, had no way to access it, but would be happy to give her a tow. She thanked me and I took the poly line that I keep, just in case, from my locker. I cleated one end and threw the rest to her. She caught it expertly and I suggested she tie it to the front lift ring. As she did I admired two things, one was certainly her ass and the other was that she actually tied a bowline.
I took in the slack and gave my trolling motors maximum thrust. The jet-ski wouldn't budge. I told her she had to help a bit by pushing the stern and she went around, bent over and did so. Now I had a great view of marvelous tits. We moved it off the bar a little at a time and finally it was afloat. I ordered her to hop aboard as I slowly motored into deeper water. I stopped and reeled her in. "Reeled" is the right word because what a catch this was! She had dark auburn hair and blazing green eyes in addition to that breathtaking body. I got her jet-ski along-side, helped her over the gunwale, and played out a bit less hawser. It was a narrow opening into this lagoon so I kept it fairly short.
"How did you run out of fuel and why were you there?"
"I go there to sunbathe. As you saw it's pretty private. I ran out of fuel because my idiot friend was supposed to have fixed the fuel gauge and gassed it up. When I got on this morning I saw a full tank and just assumed he had done both. The last time it just registered as empty even though it was full. My phone battery is dead and I have been here for hours. You can't believe how happy I am to see you! Why are you here?" I told her I was glad I showed up and explained my mission. I asked where we were headed and she gave me her address. It was actually a house I knew well as I once dated a girl that lived there. She told me her name was Dana.
"I'm so glad you showed up," she repeated. "Can I borrow your phone? The asshole might actually be worried about me."
I gave her my phone and listened as she, rightly, chastised her "friend". When she was done venting I called my daughter and left a message that I was towing in a guy and not to hold dinner for me.
She turned to me and asked, "Do I really look like a 'guy' to you? As she asked, she slowly ran her hands up and down her flanks."
"My wife was a very jealous woman so I just got into the habit of referring to everyone as a 'guy'. I just called my daughter. When my wife died I let my daughter and her family move into the main house. I moved into the pool house but the deal was that they had to provide dinner a few days a week."
"Can I ask why she was so jealous? Did you cheat on her?"
"I never did but when we first met I was fairly popular with the ladies and she was always afraid that I would go back to that lifestyle. Actually you look very much not like a guy but a beautiful and very crimson woman."
"I am burned all over, aren't I? Do you have any ice?" I pointed her to the cooler and told her that there were a couple of cold beers in there as well. She grabbed the beers, handed one to me and almost guzzled the other. We made it out through the narrow channel and I started the main engines, played out a little more hawser, and coiled the rest on the deck. It was still going to be slow going but I didn't mind. I was enjoying just looking at her.
She took out a full cup of ice and began to very slowly play one cube at a time all over her face, shoulders, arms, and then chest. As the ice melted there, my eyes traced the path of the rivulets of cold water as they moved down to her tits and I watched as her nipples hardened with the shock. I badly wanted to warm them up with my mouth. She worked her way down her torso and eventually to her thighs and legs. It was delicious to watch and I could tell that she was enjoying showing off. There is little that I enjoy more than watching a woman tease me.
