Cruising naked on a yacht on San Francisco Bay
Launching from the marina in Sausalito, California, our crew sails out into the San Francisco Bay to experience naked freedom on the deck of a large sailboat.
While the yacht is cruising away, out of eye-sight of the town, Gen tells us about her plans for a "Naked Peace Parade" in Ashland, Oregon. Hannah, Kiki and Yaqui improvise a rap version of "Summertime".
Soon it is time to shed the outer layers and enjoy the fresh breeze on our skin. The hammock on deck is a popular place to hang out as is the bow, where one can lean over and pretend to be on the Titanic. Soon five of us are climbing on the bow, on the edge of being tossed into the ocean.
Liz arrives in her small powerboat and circles the yacht taking photos. She gets some great shots of everyone climbing up on the bow.
We have fun taking photos of each other, finding creative ways to interact with parts of the yacht, climbing around here and there. Clothed mariners pass by in their boats and wave to us grinning and jealous of our freedom.
At one point a police boat comes by to do a safety check (not on video) and everyone stays below deck. Soon music and dancing takes over. Once the police are gone we come out finally decided we're going to try swimming in the extremely cold water. A few brave souls plunge in and claim "it's not so bad!"
All in all, a beautiful afternoon cruise. Join us next time!
The entire trip was covered with hundreds of photos which can be seen in our
photo gallery of that trip.
