Buoy Room By Twitch "BUOY ROOM!" I yelled as we approached the mark. Carol and I had borrowed the "Starved Cat" from my boss and had decided to go ahead and race even though he wasn't up at the lake that weekend. We were in a heated sprint to the mark at the west end of Lake Arrowhead and "Dos Gatos" was pointing just a tad better than we were. I had been hoping to steal his wind because he was coming up on my portside stern and trying to bluff me into missing the mark we were trying to round to starboard. "HEY, WATCH WHAT YOU'RE DOING" I screamed as "Dos Gatos" banged into me, tearing loose a piece of stainless trim. He rattled me so much that I missed the mark and ended up having to tack around and run it again, by this time allowing three more boats to round the mark ahead of me, my second place falling to sixth, a "why bother" race. But these races are always pretty competitive, and my boss would have taken it badly if he learned that I had not gone down swinging, especially after getting his boat banged up. So I looked in the drawer under the deck for the red protest flag. "Crap, I can't find the flag. Carol, could you come back here and root around for the flag? I've got to concentrate on sailing this thing or we're going to jibe." Now I've got to tell you about Carol. I met her at the pool, right after graduating from high school, spending one last carefree summer before heading off to college. I was working my job as a lifeguard at the country club where my family are members. One of the guys on my water polo team was the head guard and he was looking for someone to fill in after he canned another guy two weeks into the season. Members' kids always seem to get the nod when the club is looking to staff the pool, and there I was, camped beside the pool with nothing to do but teach a couple private tennis lessons now and then. Guarding at a county club pool is wonderful. All the kids are on the summer swim team, so the only work is when someone bonks his head on the side of the pool while doing laps. The teen-aged girls in their tiny bikinis are death to watch, and some of the moms aren't bad either. It makes me glad that the red trunks we wore over our speedos concealed our rather obvious pleasure, especially when the girls put on a show just to tease the guy (like me) sitting up in the guard chair trying desperately to look serious. So it was about 2 in the afternoon on a summer day when the head guard's younger sister came waltzing out of the dressing room. Kathy was an absolute knockout in her little blue bikini, and was fully aware of the fact that she was distracting me from my "job". She had been a junior the previous year and I, being the magnanimous senior, had taken her snow skiing at Big Bear a couple times that year. That particular afternoon, Kathy had brought a guest to the pool, Carol. I had known Carol only slightly from the swim team. I was usually up on the high school tennis courts when the girls' swim team was in the water, but I knew they were there. They were forced to wear the most god-awful black tank suits that didn't fit quite right. Quakers founded the town in which we lived and I suspect there were a bunch still in the neighborhood, which would explain a lot. Carol came out of the dressing room wearing a one-piece white racing suit she had borrowed from Kathy. She had the darkest tan I had ever seen, and contrasting with the white suit, I was stunned. Not only that, but even though the suit was probably two sizes too small for her, because she had almost no fat on her body other than two incredible mounds above her unbelievably flat stomach, the suit fit like it was painted on. I could just barely see the ripples of her well-defined abs telegraphed through the whisper-thin nylon of her suit. I confess that I remember very little of the rest of that afternoon, but the remainder of that summer was spent escorting Carol to different clubs in North Hollywood and the beaches in my little green sports car. Following a rather uneventful freshman year at college, I had returned to La-la Land for a summer job downtown. The commute was hell, but living at my parent's house more than made up for the hassle. Not to mention that Carol was now a graduated senior. Her senior year of swim team, diving, and gymnastics wore very well on her. She had taken up weight lifting in order to stay competitive and had become rather inspired by the result. Thank god I had maintained my training at college or I could never have kept up with her. The first time I saw her this summer I was blown away! She was wearing very short cut-offs and a cropped T-shirt that covered her tits, but that was about all. She was not wearing a bra (she really doesn't need one) so I could just see the bottom swell of her full breasts peering out from under the ragged edge of the T-shirt. She's about 5'-5" and I would guess her chest to be about 36 inches, a good deal of that composed of her lats, and absolutely no sag to her beautifully rounded breasts. Her deeply tanned, broad shoulders accentuated the taper of her 32-inch hips (I know because she looks much better in my blue jeans than I do). I'm 5'-10" and my arms, flexed, are a little more than 17 inches cold. So I judged hers at about 15 inches, flexed. Her biceps have this really cool vein that traces diagonally over the incredible peaks when she works hard and her triceps have better definition than mine do. She has sleek swimmer's legs with nicely defined calf muscles from doing the balance beam and her little ass is as hard as a 2x4. But it's her stomach that's the killer. Relaxed, I swear you could bounce a quarter off her unbelievably flat and deeply tanned abs. Standing there, the slightly drooping waistline of her cut-offs bridged from hip to hip without touching her belly. As I walked up to her, she let out a little laugh, unconsciously tightening the muscles of her abs. This casual little flex almost made me blow my wad on the spot. In sharp relief, a defined four-pack popped into view. As we hugged for the first time this summer, I could feel her hard muscles bunching up on her back. She hugged me tightly, her arms around my waist, pressing up against the rather large bulge in my pants that sort of gave away how I was feeling at the moment. So here we were, sailing uplake on a beam reach with the wind trying to jibe the sail, with Carol rooting around in the drawer looking for the red protest flag. She was wearing a tiny yellow bikini that was nothing more than a few small triangles of thin stretchy nylon strung together with thick string. With her knees on the bilgeboards and kneeling over to peer into the back of the tool drawer, the bottom of her bikini was riding down, exposing the phenomenal contrast of her dark tan and the unblemished white of her amazingly hard ass. "You know, the flag just isn't in here. Why don't you pull off your trunks and use them for the flag," she asked, giving my old guard trunks a sharp tug. "I know you've got your Speedo on underneath!" I started to protest, claiming at least a modicum of modesty when, still on her knees, she reached up and swiftly jerked my trunks down around my ankles. I gave out a yelp of surprise as she gave me a little push, unbalancing me so I smartly sat down on the deck combing. Before I could react, she had my trunks in her hands and was climbing up on the foredeck, reaching as high as she could to tie them onto the lower jackstay spreader. As she stretched high, the tiny triangles of her bikini top crept upward, allowing the delicate little aereolae of her nipples to peek out from under the thin cloth. As the ripples of her stomach tightened, a few light brown hairs poked over the top of her bikini bottom. After tying off my trunks, she pulled her top back in place, but not as low as it was before she began her little show. She knows that allowing her "C" cup breasts to swell out from under her top just drives me nuts. Scuttling over, she sat down next to me, tucking her feet under the port side hiking strap. She put her right hand on my leg, about an inch down from my Speedo, and said, "Now we're on more even terms." I was about to ask what she meant, when she then traced the nail of her index finger down the length of my now raging hard on. Well that did it. I was so distracted that the wind shifted in behind the sail, swinging the boom hard over to port and spilling us into the cold mountain lake. Recovering, I uncleted the mainsheet and the portside backstay, reached over and pulled home the starboard backstay and gathered in the main while Carol dropped the portside bargeboard and raised the starboard board into the hull. Sitting on the starboard rail, we tucked our feet under the hiking strap and leaned back over the side of the boat, our combined weight stabilizing the angle. We were both sopping wet, the cold water running off our suntan oiled skin, the summer sun beating down through the clear deep blue mountain sky. The breeze caused the deeply tanned skin of the goddess brushing against me to rise into little goose bumps, her nipples straining the now semi-transparent yellow material of her bikini. The little triangles of her top had gathered during the commotion, so that they now formed two vertical lines, just barely concealing her swelling nipples, the pure white of her ballooning breasts now showing boldly. The water flowing down between these two mounds puddled in the valleys created by her rippling abs. The biceps of her arms were swelling hugely as she gripped the monkey bars, the puffy veins blowing up to high definition. The cold mountain water could do nothing to discourage my hard on that was now sticking straight up and popping an inch or two out of the top of my Speedo. Carol looked over, and with a sly little smile gently grabbed my swelling dick and started moving her hand up and down, oh so slowly! Oh man, the boat race was history, but another race was on! Still having to control the boat, I eased off the mainsheet and pulled the tiller toward me a bit. We fell out of the track and, with the wind not heeling us over quite so much, we gently peeled off to port. A quick glance at the boat that was just coming up behind us, and an interesting, quizzical, then knowing look from the skipper, and Carol and I headed off downwind to see what other challenges we could discover...
