Possibly one of the best experiences an individual can have is to sail bare. There are many reasons for this. The first is that should one be able to sail un clothed then the weather would have to be warm and bright to make the prospect inviting, also if one is able to sail, then some wind will probably be making itself understand and also the boat will be leaning to it . Even in colder climes when I've needed to wear clothing to ward off the elements I never tire of the wonder that is clearly a sailing vessel only utilizing the wind to drive through the ocean. Sorry I digress, anyhow another variable, ( unless one is a serious exhibitionist) is that there is not going to be lots of other boats around and for me an empty sea is a happy sea. If there are other people on board, then if ones relationship to them will not be strained by sharing such an intimate experience, it may even be enriching.
Sailing can be beach party demanding pastime, often one has to move quickly, its not until one has had the joy of moving without clothing does one realise how confining garments are. When I was on my way (singlehanded) back across the Atlantic in my beaten up schooner "Gloria" the most effective sail was one that went by the name of "the fishermans" this four sided stone went at the top between both masts and was astonishingly powerful in light airs. The drawback was that as soon as the wind piped up it had to come down. I'd grown quite tired of this caper and the subsequent sewing up of tears that came of it. This one particular time it did it, the whole sail floated forward and wrapped itself around the foremast top, I knew that in a very short time it would be ripped beyond repair and I scaled the mast to free it. It really was a revelation. How well beach blondes would decrease in Solent sailing circles I dont understand, I daresay the RYA and health and safety would have at least something to say on the issue!


Another amazing thing about only wearing ones skin is that it is an inescapable section of sailing that from time to time a bit of the wet things will throw itself at you. In blondes on a beach are wearing clothes they'll get wet, and as its sea water, the salt will then cease the clothing from ever properly drying until it is rinsed with fresh water. Fresh water could be very prized on a sailing boat far from land, it is not to be squandered in rinsing out clothing. So if beach babes will not wear any, it does not get dirty and need washing does it? Along with all these amazing gains one gets a nice even tan, what could possibly be better?)
