Catching the Sun in Puget Sound
Welcome to our website!
Our motto: "Preserving Our Right to Bear Buns"
Puget Sound Nautical Naturists is looking for adult couples and select singles who enjoy nude boating and would be interested in joining others to participate in these activities. Have we gotten your attention? Read on and we'll try to answer your questions........
The First Mate Bares It All
Q: Nude Boating? Are You Kidding?
A: Not at all! We have always enjoyed being nude on our boat. We like the freedom from clothes and feeling the warm sun on our "buns". Also, no tan lines! You would be amazed at the number of other boaters we pass on the water during the warm summer months who are also nude. So, why not get together?
Q: Where would we go?
A: Just about anywhere. Puget Sound has lots of semi-isolated coves and beaches. Especially on the Hood Canal side. Or we could just cruise together in the buff to a non-nude destination. Let's share our ideas?

Q: Is this legal? I mean - what if somebody sees us?
A: Of course, good taste and discretion are very important. We always cover up when other boats are close by us or when entering a harbor or marina. In the five years we have been sailing nude, we have never been stopped or even warned by anyone.
Q: how is your organization structured? What are the dues and fees?
A: Right now, we're pretty loose - and mainly just want to assess the level of interest in "bare-boating" among other folks in the local boating community. There are no fees, scheduled meetings or agendas, yet. Those things may develop if our group grows in size.

Q: Is there a national organization?
A: Yes, It's Called the "Nautical Naturists" and there are sixteen different "flotillas" across the U.S. and Canada. They share ideas, information, experiences, and offer links to related organizations and services, such as naturist travel and other nudist groups. They are even designing a "burgee" for members to display if they wish to identify themselves as members of this 'elite group'.
Q: Do I need to own a boat?
A: Either that or be invited by someone who owns one as a guest or crew member.

Q: So - Who are you guys and how did you get into this?
A: Actually, we're probably a lot like you. We are a discreet, professional couple, married over 25 years who love boating. We have always been pretty uninhibited when it comes to nudity and enjoy visiting the nude beaches on the West Coast and in Hawaii. We have responsible jobs and families and would never do anything to compromise someone else's privacy or embarass them.
Q: OK! Now you have my attention! How do I contact somebody about joining?
A: Just send us an email. We'll get back to you as soon as we can!
