On the Water part 2
We arrived at the boat at around nine the next morning. It had been easy to
find, parked in the marina next to the hotel. 'Kajira' was emblazoned on the
transom, and I wondered how many people knew what the name of the boat actually
meant.
The boat was fairly large, maybe fifty feet in length to my untrained eye. It
had a single mast and lots of rigging and looked to be in very good condition.
There was no one to been seen.
"Ahoy!" I shouted with a grin, getting into the spirit of the occasion.
A door at the rear of the cabin opened and a head poked out. It was Ben.
"Hi there, come aboard. We were just finishing breakfast!"
We waved and stepped aboard. Ben came out onto the rear deck to meet us. "Just
the two bags?" he asked.
"Yep, you said to travel light." I replied.
"Good. You should have room for all your stuff in your cabin." he said with a
smile. "Come on in!"
Laura and I followed Ben below into what turned out to be a very roomy area.
To our left was a booth with a table at which Ben and Amy had been eating, on
the right was a nook filled with dials and buttons which I later found out was
for all the radios and navigation equipment. There was also an autopilot that
could steer the boat as well a joystick that could copy the action of the wheel
out on the helm.
Down a few steps beyond the booth was the kitchen, or galley I should say, and
that was where Amy was.
Both Amy and Ben were in shorts and T-shirts and both were barefoot. They made
me feel over dressed in my slacks and shirt, while Laura was back in her bikini
and wrap.
"Hi Don, hi Laura." Amy said, stacking food into a cupboard.
"Hi, nice place you have here!" I replied.
"Isn't it?" Ben agreed. "I love this boat. Come on I'll give you a tour. Amy!
You show Laura where they'll be sleeping then you can finish cleaning up!"
"Yes Sir!" Amy said with a grin.
I watched for a moment as the two women greeted each other and then followed Ben
forward into the bowels of his floating home.
He showed me the Master State room squeezed as far forward into the boat as it
could get. It was surprisingly roomy and had a full sized double bed and lots of
storage space. It even had a private bathroom...sorry, head, with a shower.
Aft of that was the galley and a seating area and aft of that up a few steps
were the booth and navigation console I already told you about.
He then took me aft past the steps we had used to enter the boat, stepping down
a couple more steps as we did so, and there was another head shared by two more
cabins. One cabin was a single and would go unoccupied this trip, the other had
a double bed and would be ours.
It was small but it didn't seem cramped at all. I figured we wouldn't have any
problem staying here for a while.
One thing I was really glad for was the head room. At no time did I have to duck
my head which made me happy.
Ben was very happy, showing off his toy. I nodded and made polite remarks as he
told me where the engine was (under the floor of the booth which was why we had
to go up and down steps to get from one end of the boat to the other), how much
fuel it carried and how far we could go. He showed me every electronic toy he
had and when we went up on deck he continued his tour by showing me the wheel
and controls which he could use to pilot the boat.
"What I really like about this model is that in bad weather I can switch control
of the boat to the controls inside and stay nice a dry. The windows around the
pilot house give me full visibility."
"Very nice." I said. I was watching the women. Laura and Amy were on the
foredeck, that is the deck in front of the mast and roof of the cabin and pilot
house. Laura was evidently getting her own tour.
"Amy!" Ben called out. "I told you to finish cleaning up!"
"I just thought I'd give Laura a quick tour!" Amy called back.
"Did I say anything about giving Laura a tour?" Ben said seriously.
Amy's smile faded. "No Sir."
"Then get below, now!"
"Yes Sir." Amy turned and walked back to us, passing us without a word as she
headed below.
Laura stood where she was, looking a little unsure of what she should be doing.
I decided to rescue her. "Laura, why don't you go unpack us and then go sit at
the table when you're done."
"Yes Sir." Laura said gratefully, and she quickly followed her sister in
servitude inside.
Ben smiled. "I think Amy's enthusiasm is getting the better of her."
"I understand. If you need to discipline her don't feel you have to pull back
just because we're here." I replied.
"Don't worry, I wont. Fancy a beer?"
"Sure!" I replied.
We went back below and Ben had me sit in the booth. He went to the galley and
came back with a beer for me and a cola for himself. I knew Ben was a
recovering alcoholic and that he must have laid on the beer just for me. It made
me a little uncomfortable drinking it.
"Don't worry about it." Ben told me, reading my mind. "If you having a beer was
going to bother me I never would have brought any aboard."
"Thanks Pal." I said.
We waited together as the women attended to their chores, talking about nothing
much until first Laura and then Amy joined us.
"Okay." Ben said. "Now for a quick but serious lecture."
I sat back and waited to hear what our host had to say.
"First of all, thank you both again for taking the time to come with us. I know
we're both really glad for this chance to finally meet you." said Ben. Laura
and I smiled and returned the sentiment.
"In a few minutes we'll be heading out and we'll be on our own until we return
or hit a populated port. Therefore certain rules of the sea will apply. Don,
while I would not presume to butt in on your special relationship with Laura,
there may be times when I will have to give her commands that I will expect to
have obeyed. As the Captain of our little crew it's important that I have total
command in certain situations where the safety of us all is concerned.
This would also mean you yourself doing what I ask when I ask when I need your
help with the boat.
Do you agree?"
I had been thinking about this already, and had already decided on my answer.
"Sure Ben. You can count on me and Laura. In fact, Laura! From this point on Ben
is as much your Master as I am. You obey him just like you would obey me!"
Laura looked up at me for a moment, then gave Ben a nervous glance. I could tell
she was both scared and excited at the prospect of being commanded by another
man. She had done tasks for him before online, but this was different. Here she
would be under his direct command in full view of him.
She nodded, nervously.
I looked at Ben who had sat back at my announcement.
Ben and I had talked about this online before committing to this trip and had
decided to see how things were going before taking such a step. I could see he
was surprised.
"That isn't necessary you know." Ben said.
"I feel it is Ben. I trust you with her."
Ben nodded and looked over at Amy who sat quietly watching us all.
I decided to speak up. "Don't feel you have to reciprocate right now. Take the
time you wanted to and if you both feel it is something you cant do then that's
fine." I smiled.
"I have a question, Sir." Amy said to me.
"Yes?"
"Will this arrangement include...sex?"
I hesitated before answering. So far Laura and I had never gone beyond each
other for sex, we had never seen the need to. "I would rather it didn't." I
said. Laura smiled at me a little relieved I guessed.
Amy stared at Ben who stared back at her. I thought I perceived a small nod on
Amy's part.
"Don." Ben said. "I'm not that comfortable right now with it. But I will allow
her to serve you in non sexual ways, and you are free to discipline her as the
need arises."
"That's fine." I said, meaning it.
"Maybe once we get to know each other better." Ben told me.
I nodded.
"Alright. But back to my lecture, I want to make it clear that the final
decision about everything on this trip is mine. Understood?"
We all said yes.
Ben smiled. "Okay then. Everybody on deck, and let's cast off!"
Laura and I followed our hosts outside and we sat at the stern next to the
pilot's console watching Ben and Amy get the boat ready to sail.
Ben stood at the wheel flipping switches and I could hear fans blowing below
somewhere. Amy was on the pier unplugging a power cord that ran to an outlet
box.
"Time to teach you a few things about running this boat in case you have to do
it yourself." Ben said to me.
"Sure!"
"Okay. Now this is important. These switches here are for the blowers, fans in
the engine compartment. Unlike the engine of a car which is open underneath, the
engine of a boat is in an enclosed compartment. Fumes can build up in that space
and if you were to start the engine you might ignite them and blow up the boat.
So always remember to run the blowers first, they clear the air so you can start
the engine safely."
I nodded.
Amy had by this time coiled up her power cord and had put it away somewhere. Now
she was in the process of untying each of the ropes that held us to the pier.
Ben showed me how to start the engine and there was a throaty roar as the diesel
started.
"If we have an engine, why do we have a mast?" Laura asked.
"Because, dear Laura, once we get out to sea I'll shut off the engine and we'll
go on under wind power. The engine is only really used in places where the sail
is unmanageable, and to charge the batteries." Ben told her with a smile.
Amy stood at the bow, a rope in hand. "Ready to cast off Captain!" she yelled
with a grin.
"Cast off!" Ben yelled back.
With a clever flick of her wrist Amy pulled the rope off the last stanchion
holding us to the pier and we started to drift away.
"Here we go!" said Ben, applying power.
Laura and I grinned at each other as the boat began to move. It was going to be
an adventure for both of us since neither of us had spent any real time aboard a
boat before. For sure neither of us had ever gone to sea.
Amy finished coiling ropes and came and gave Ben a hug.
"Sir, may Laura come up front with me?" she asked me.
I nodded and with a smile both women headed for the foredeck where a couple of
low riding deck chairs awaited.
I stood next to Ben and watched as he deftly handled the big boat, steering it
around other yachts that were either moored or moving like we were. Soon we were
well clear of the shore and heading away from land.
I looked on with interest as Ben piloted. At his elbow was a chart with a few
lines drawn on it, our course? He would glance down at it occasionally but his
attention was split between the compass in front of him, the radar screen to
his left and the sea around us. As we got further out he spent less time looking
around and more time looking at the radar. He seemed satisfied however and he
began to smile.
"I have the radar set at ten miles." he told me. "There are just a couple of
other vessels in the area and they're heading in the other direction. We
shouldn't get any closer to them than we are now."
I nodded. Only barely able to tell what the blips on the screen could be.
He flipped a couple more switches and let go of the wheel.
"Now the autopilot has it." he explained. "It'll keep us on course. I also have
the radar set to sound an alarm if it sees anything within five miles of us.
That's plenty for daylight. We'll run on the engine for a few hours to make sure
the batteries get a good charge."
"You're the boss!" I said laughing.
Ben grinned. "In that case..." He stepped away from the wheel and lent forward
against the roof of the pilot house.
"Ladies!" he yelled. "At sea uniform is now required!"
Laura looked back confused but Amy giggled.
"What's the at sea uniform?" I asked Ben.
"I think you'll like it." Ben said to me.
Amy stood up and glanced at me for a moment before reaching under her shirt for
her shorts. She pulled them down to her ankles with one movement and stepped out
of them. Then she reached for the hem of her shirt. In seconds it was off her
body and lying on the deck. Amy now stood in nothing but her gold collar, her
arms wrapped around herself nervously.
"You're right." I said to Ben, who chuckled. "Come on Laura, you're out of
uniform!" I yelled.
Laura looked from Amy to me and back again and then stood up.
We were going a pretty good pace and the wind blew her hair wonderfully. She
undid her wrap and let it drop to the deck. She took a deep breath and soon her
bikini followed. Now both women were naked except for their collars.
"As I said before...beautiful." Ben said to me.
I agreed. I also noticed that neither woman had any real tan lines, so being
outdoors nude was nothing new to them.
The women stood in the breeze of the boat's passage hugging themselves, staring
at each other and at us men. Then Laura began to giggle and she relaxed her
arms. Her laughter was infectious and Amy began to join in. Then to my surprise
Amy dropped her arms and did a little pirouette.
Laura did one too and the two women held hands laughing at I don't know what,
the ice broken.
I grinned at Ben. "I'm heading below to change out of these slacks." I said to
him.
He looked me up and down. "Good. And from now on no shoes aboard the 'Kajira'."
I gave him a mock salute and went below.
Our cabin was neat, with no sign of our luggage. I looked in a couple of drawers
and in the hanging locker (closet to you land folk) and discovered where Laura
had put all my stuff.
Most of the clothes were mine. All we had brought for Laura to wear apart from
her bikini were some shorts and a couple of shirts, and her evening dress.
I changed into shorts, deciding to go bare chested, and then looked for our
second bag. This bag was our toy bag, and I wanted a couple of things from it.
I found what I was looking for and headed back up top.
I padded barefoot along the teak deck to where Amy and Laura sat naked sunning
themselves. Amy saw me coming and her hands began to move to cover herself up.
I understood her action, it would be a little while before she got used to being
nude around me.
"Laura, you comfortable?" I asked my wife.
"Oh yes, especially now!" she giggled, shaking her bare breasts at me. Oh how I
love it when she does that.
"Good." I said, pulling from behind my back what I had dug out of our toy bag.
It was her leather cuffs, one for each ankle and wrist.
Laura smiled when she saw them and then glanced at Amy with a guilty look. Amy
smiled.
"Come here." I ordered.
Laura got up and stood while I locked the cuffs on her. I intended her to wear
them for the rest of the trip but didn't tell her that.
Then I took a small padlock from my pocket and connected her ankles together.
"I was wondering how long my freedom would last!" Laura said as I did this.
"I don't think you're going to have much freedom from now on." I said with a
grin. Laura wrinkled her nose at me.
I helped her back into her chair and lifted her wrists over her head. With a
second padlock I locked them there to the chair and she was trapped.
"Now you can work on that tan." I told her.
"But what if another boat comes?" she asked me.
"I don't know, I guess we'll just hope they aren't pirates!"
"Donald!" she whined, wriggling deliciously.
I laughed and bent low to kiss her, letting my hands roam a little. When I broke
the kiss Laura looked over at Amy, red faced with embarrassment. Amy was
watching us with a grin on her face.
"Amy. Why don't you go get Laura and yourself something to drink. I'd like you
to watch her and take care of her for a while. If she gets too red from the sun
help her turn over, I don't want her burnt." I said.
"Yes Sir." she said with a grin and she jumped up and headed aft.
"You okay with all this?" I asked Laura once Amy had left.
Laura nodded. "I'm a little scared, but it's easier than I thought it would be."
"And if Ben wants to play?" I asked.
"I'll be okay with that, as long as you are."
I nodded and kissed her once more, then left her alone to head back to Ben.
We had traveled a good distance away from the coast by now and the ocean swells
had picked up a little. Nothing big, but the 'Kajira' was certainly rocking. You
could tell we were really at sea now.
I had to hang on to the rigging as I walked back to the stern.
"I saw you cuffing Laura." Ben said from his seat at the wheel. He wasn't
actively steering anymore, but he was watching the autopilot.
"Yes, that's okay isn't it?"
"Sure, but when she has to move I suggest you let her hands stay free so she can
hold on to things. Below you can keep her cuffed up. I don't want her or Amy
falling overboard."
"Sure!" I said, agreeing.
Amy came out on deck and made her way forward without holding on to anything.
She definitely had her sea legs and what wonderful legs they were!
I watched as she pulled her chair closer to Laura's and begin to share a drink
with her.
"You know," I said to Ben. "I'm really looking forward to this trip!"
Ben smiled, and we watched our nude women as they began to renew their online
friendship.
