Tern is a forty six foot luxury sailing vessel and we had just completed a major refit on her. Tern is a single mast sloop with full cabin and full accommodations and first class all the way. We had just replaced the gas engine with a new six cylinder diesel and completely refurbished the interior. The teakwood and mahogany had all been redone by our finishing craftsmen . It had new carpet, cabinets and the exterior and bottom paint was all redone. The cabinets, mattresses and all the components including radio, radar and global positioning systems were put in new. It had a new fresh water converter and a new diesel fired furnace unit. The mainsail and the jib were both replaced along with the sheet winches and all the rope rigging. The shaft and prop were all refurbished and the boat had been in one of our dry docks for almost four months and was now ready to go. Nothing was spared to get the best into this boat. I had just done a shake down on it yesterday and it was in our marina now waiting to be picked up. Tern belonged to the Harmon Pulp and Paper Company from Juneau Alaska and had been brought here last fall and left with us for the refit. The main reason for the meeting we were having today is that we had got a request from the President of Harmon paper who just happened to be an old buddy of my dad's. He wanted us to deliver the boat to Juneau and was a little fussy about who would sail it. He actually requested that it would be me that would deliver the boat and he asked if he could supply the crew made up of his daughter and her boyfriend and that they would come with me on the trip. I grew up on the water and have an engineering degree as related to ship building and marine survey. I am one of the youngest members of the power squadron which is a marine safely organization and I'm trained in VHF digital radio, radar and navigation so I more then qualify to do this and have done this sort of thing on many occasions including running a catamaran to Hawaii two years ago. I also know the inside passage up the west coast to Juneau and it's not really a problem to me but the trip will take almost ten days and the question is whether I have the time. I am single with no ties so it would be only business commitments that would keep me from it. My dad just asked me out right if I would do a favour for him and his old friend and just like that I was booked to go to Juneau. His daughter and her boyfriend would be arriving at the airport the next afternoon and I would be picking them up. I hoped that they knew a little bit about what they were doing. I was told that the daughter had spent a lot of time on the boat so she would probably have a bit of a clue. The boat really took a couple of people to sail it properly but we would be running on the diesel engine a lot of the time anyway when we were in the smaller areas of the inside passage. I hoped they would be of help and didn't really want to spend too much time training them. The next afternoon I was at the airport to meet the incoming flight arriving from Chicago via Vancouver. I waited in the luggage area and had no description really of who I was picking up. Someone touched my arm and I turned and standing beside me was a very pretty blonde girl in her early to mid twenties with a red haired guy standing beside her. She asked "are you Bobby from Island Marine?" I answered "yes and you must be Tracy Harmon." She smiled and I got my first good look at her. She had long blonde hair and was dressed casual. She was not much over five feet tall with a cute smile and just a touch of light freckles on her nose and to me she looked gorgeous and for some reason I knew at once I was going to like her. "Yes I'm Tracy, pleased to meet you Bobby and this is Kevin." The guy came forward and we shook hands. I have a built in radar and for some reason I got bad vibes off him right from the beginning. Tracy seemed to be friendly and very cheerful. She was slim and very shapely with a bit of a tan so she had obviously spent some time outdoors. I was actually a bit concerned with the knowledge of my crew but we would wait and see. In the back of my mind I had the feeling that training Tracy might not be that hard to take. Anyway, we packed up their bags on a cart and took off back to the city and chatted about their trip here. It was fairly late in the day so I took them to a hotel and made arrangements to meet with them for breakfast the next morning and we would go to the boat and spend the day outfitting it with food and the usual stuff that might not already be in the boat. I would fuel it and do a few last minute checks on it and later that day or the next morning we would leave and go north. The trip was about five hundred miles and I hoped to be able to do close to eighty miles on some days. We would not travel fast and hoped to be able to go under sail for a good portion of the trip. I also hoped that we would get some good weather with no storms and not a lot of rain. I met them for breakfast the next morning and Tracy was dressed unbelievably cute. She had her hair in a long ponytail , was wearing a ball cap and a Chicago Bears jacket with low cut jeans. She looked like she wouldn't be afraid to get her hands dirty. As for the guy that was with her he was a different story. He made the mistake in the first hour of treating me like I was someone that was hired to perhaps carry his bags for him. I straightened him out on that and I saw Tracy smile at me when I told him and laughed, " the way this works is that I am the captain and unfortunately you will be the crew." I could tell he didn't care for that but the fact he didn't was not going to cause me many sleepless nights. I looked after the final outfitting and fuelling of the boat and Tracy took on the job of taking inventory and filling the stores with food, bottled water etc. Tern had a good size freezer so we could take some frozen food and she seemed to know what to take as if she had done that before. I gave them a company pickup to use and they looked after the shopping. I was pleased to see the beer and the bottles of wine going aboard which meant it was not going to be a dry trip. I was happy to see there was beer instead of champagne and steak in the fridge instead of sushi and tofu and that told me a bit about her. The more I saw of Tracy the more I liked her and I could see she liked me and we were starting to get along great. However in just the one day we been together it was easy to see that her and Kevin were not getting along that great. I noticed a number of times that she just ignored his whining and did her thing. There was little interaction between them like you would expect and he acted like he didn't really want to be there. I wondered if he was a bit jealous that Tracy obviously liked me. Since our little altercation he was sort of ignoring me and it wasn't hurting my feelings much . I met them at their hotel that evening for dinner and I more or less laid out the plans for the trip. I explained about how at night we would tie up at public wharfs in marinas and as we got away from the populated areas we would anchor in sheltered areas over night. We could not risk the chance of travelling at night with the many reefs, islets and floating debris that was along that whole passage. Kevin seemed to be concerned about how long the trip was going to take. Tracy explained the Tern was not a fast boat and it was a long ways to where we were going. The next morning we cast off from our company dock in Victoria and I pointed Tern's nose out into the Strait toward the San Juan islands and headed north through the Salt Spring Islands group. We hardly got out of site of Victoria before we encountered some swells due to an off shore wind the night before and within an hour we had Kevin over the side of the boat puking his guts out and Tracy was even more upset with him because she tried to get him to take sea sick pills before we left and he refused. I tried to not let her see me snickering but she saw me and rolled her eyes and smiled back. She seemed to be very comfortable with the boat and I noticed that when she stored the fenders and rolled the ties that she knew what she was doing and I was a bit impressed. She knew her way around Tern very well and as I had heard she had spent a lot of time on it. She took a turn on the wheel and handled it well. She knew what she was doing and learned and got used to the new instruments quickly. Meanwhile Kevin spent most of the day on a chair on deck. It was a gorgeous spring day and this first leg of the trip was going great and the new diesel was running perfect. Tracy looked after making the lunch and we had sandwiches and some cut up fruit. Kevin of course didn't bother to join us. I tried to get him to do a stint at the wheel but the guy couldnt even stand up. By late afternoon we were a good forty five miles north of Victoria and I took a quick bearing and decided we would put in at Ladysmith which was a small coastal community for the night. It looked like this first day we were going to travel about sixty miles which was good. Kevin was starting to feel a bit better and when we got into Ladysmith and got tied down for the night he was not too bad and he ate some of the dinner we cooked on board that night. It was a warm evening so we sat on the deck and drank some beer. It was more and more apparent to me that my crew was not getting along. I don't know what had been brewing with them before they came out here but they were no longer trying to hide the fact that things were not going good now. Tracy was spending a lot more time talking to me and I think the guy was getting a bit jealous. I'm an outdoors type over six feet tall, in good shape, fairly muscular with no fat and I have been told I'm not too hard to look at. I think I may have impressed Tracy a bit and I also think she liked the way I was treating her. I have found out that she is far from being a wimp like her boyfriend seems to be. I'm very impressed with her and beginning to like her more and more all the time. It got around to almost midnight and we decided it was time to get some sleep and get an early start the next morning. I picked up the marine forecast and tomorrow was sounding good Tracy took the full sleeping cabin at the front and I took the bunk at the bottom of the stairs leading to the deck. I was watching to see where Kevin would fit in and smiled a little to myself as he set up by himself on one of the convertible bunks off the living area in the main room. Very interesting, but I considered him being with Tracy a terrible waste anyway. I had picked up bits and pieces from her that they were not a real long term item and were not engaged or anything. I was soon asleep and as usual the little rocking of the boat on its moorings just put me right out. We got up the next morning at six and we were socked in with fog. We took our time and made a leisurely breakfast in the galley and by the time we finished the sun was out and was burning the fog off and around eight we backed out of the slip and headed for the south tip of Valdes Island and out into the Georgia Strait. By ten thirty we were well clear of land with a decent twenty knot south east breeze. Tracy took the wheel steered a heading of twenty degrees north and I got the winches uncovered and ran up the mainsail and watched the wind fill it as we took on a good starboard tack. I hit the switch and unwrapped the jib and caught the same wind and watched it billow out if front of us and then got Tracy to shut the engine down and our speed was sitting on fifteen knots and we were well under sail. I tuned the sails a bit checked chocks and just took up a seat beside Tracy and let her keep the helm for now. This was the first time Kevin had sailed and I'm not sure he liked the lack of action but at least today he wasn't sick. The wind stayed up for the whole day and we ran into some rough water but Tern just knifed through the waves as we ran with the wind to our stern and made very good time. Tracy and I alternated at the helm and Kevin spent some time in the cabin reading. We had made good time this second day and would put into the marina at Little River a bit earlier then planned but that would be a good run for the second day. We tied up and got things put away by seven thirty and I went for a walk along the docks and ran into some people I knew that we had done boat work for and chatted for a while. I was a bit tired so I slowly walked back to where we were tied up and as I got along side Tern I could hear Tracy and Kevin talking inside. Apparently he had wanted to go to his parents place in Connecticut and she talked him into as he put it, " this stupid boat ride up in the asshole of the world." I fought to control my urge to drag him out of there and drown him but instead walked away and went up the hill to a bar overlooking the marina and ordered a beer. I went back to the wharf an hour later and found they were gone. I noticed all of Kevin's stuff was not there anymore. I didn't go to bed instead I sat in one of the soft captains chairs reading my book and eventually went to sleep in the chair. I was awakened with Tracy shaking me and I almost jumped right up. It was after midnight and she was alone. She sat down and told me that Kevin had taken his stuff and caught the bus leaving for Vancouver where he would catch a flight home. She went on to tell me how they had not been getting along which I of course knew. She told how the last couple of days things with them just came to a head and last night was the end. She went on to say that she didn't know what to do and asked if I would want to try and get someone to run with me up to Juneau. I asked her "what's wrong with you staying with me and the two of us finishing the trip?" Tracy seemed to perk up a bit but still answered with a question, "how do you think it is going to look for us to travel and live together on this boat for over a week?" I asked "What do you think of the idea?" I went on "as far as us travelling together I think it would be fine and have no problem with it but its up to you." "Okay," she said "I'm going to make us some tea and we can leave in the morning." We sat up for a couple of hours and talked. She had just lost a boyfriend but she sounded almost relieved. We talked about my life and my work in the boating industry and about a few stories of trips and experiences I have had. I'm only four years older then her. She was twenty four and I'm twenty eight. She worked in the Chicago warehousing division of her fathers company as an accountant and would go back there when this holiday was over. She was very smart and impressive and I finally suggested she get to bed and we would talk over breakfast in the morning. We both went to bed and I was soon asleep. We got up early and it was cool but the diesel furnace soon had it warm in the galley and it would be an hour or so before the sun would do any good outside. It looked like a nice day on the way . She had not changed her mind and was ready to go. I had studied the tide tables and estimated our time to Campbell River would be about noon. There would be a slack tide at two in the afternoon so if we got going now we could run into Seymour Narrows and beat the dangerous flood currents in that passage. We got our stuff together and got on our way and were soon out into the strait heading towards Quadra Island. My timing was right and we ran through the narrows with hardly a ripple underneath us and we were now away from towns for a couple of days before we hit the northern tip of the island at Port Hardy and then we would be out in the open sea. We had to cross an area that was close to ninety miles across before we could duck back into the inside passage. Tracy and I were getting along fine and were actually starting to have some fun and I found she had an excellent sense of humour and was very interesting. We spent some time with me showing her how to steer the boat on auto pilot and ended up with my arms around her as she stood at the wheel. We anchored and spent the night in a cove on the south edge of Port Hardy and it was now on the fifth day since we left Victoria and we would now be starting into the northern leg of the trip. We fuelled Tern up, topped off the fresh water tank that supplied the shower inside and replenished our groceries and beer. We were now ready to head out into the open ocean where we would be offshore for a couple of days. The marine forecast was good and we pushed off and headed out steering twenty five degrees north. I plotted a course that would take us to the inlet in a bit over thirty six hours under sail if the forecasted wind speed was close and we would be able to run almost direct with a good starboard tack as our wind from the south west would push us right on our course with out having to correct and compensate. By noon we were well out and running about forty miles off shore on our course and I had noticed the barometer dropping and just noticed the clouds coming up in the west and it was not unusual for an afternoon squall to come up but I watched it closely. The marine weather forecast was now giving small craft warnings but it was not to worry and Tracy was at the helm and things were under control and then I began to notice the wind pickup up a bit and Tern started to really move out. I watched the clouds coming up fast to the west and the wind was getting stronger and the waves were now capping off at about five feet. I loosened off the jib and hit the winch and wound it in at the same time I got Tracy to fire the diesel. I unwrapped the knot in the sheet and hit the winch button and dropped the main sail and watched Tern come over onto an even keel and we were now running on the diesel engine but the wind had really picked up now and the rain was coming hard. Tracy was soaked as she had been behind the wheel. I came back and got her to go below and I fastened my dead mans line and put up the convertible top that covered the helm area and it was dry again in there. I headed Tern into the wind that was now coming from the northwest. This would take us off shore but this long boat would cut these waves with little trouble and we could correct our course when this blew over. The storm lasted all night and Tracy and I took turns on the helm. I got no sleep and I knew she got none as she spent most of her time keeping things together below. The boat was completely water proof from the rain and the furnace was working good so I knew she was warm below and I made her stay under there but I know she didn't sleep. Finally the storm eased off around three in the afternoon almost twenty four hours after it started and it became quite calm and the sun came out and warmed us a bit. But we were tired and had to get our bearings and get corrected in our course and found we had not strayed that far off. We were so tired she just stayed inside my arms in front of the wheel as we steered the boat together. We were getting close to land and I intended to try and get into one of the inlets and find an anchorage before it got totally dark. We were now entering the inland passage and had completed the worse part of the open sea we would have to navigate. I went to the chart and found there was a bay with a good clay mud bottom just a few miles away and I headed for it. I steered Tern into the secluded cove and let her drift to a stop in about ten meters of water. I hit the anchor switch and dropped the anchor and let it hit then backed up and spooled out about forty meters of line and locked it and felt Tern suck down in the bow as the anchor dug in the mud. I shut the engine off checked out the boat for storm damage and all was okay and then went below. Flight of the Tern Tracy was as tired as me and we were hungry so we made some soup in the microwave and ate some biscuits and tea. We were both too tired to cook anything. We sat on one of the couch type benches and soon I had her almost asleep in my arms and we stayed that way for a long time and then she looked up into my eyes and I brought my lips down to hers and kissed her softly and she brought her hand up the side of my neck and just held me as she pressed her lips to mine. I felt her move tight against me. I picked Tracy up and took her to her cabin and lay her on the bed with her clothes and I covered her with a large comforter. I went and locked up and turned the lights out and prepared my bed. I heard Tracy calling me and I went to check on her and she spoke to me "do you think you could stay in here with me tonight Bobby?" I had been down to my tee shirt and light deck pants and so I moved under the comforter with her and took her in my arms and held her close. She turned towards me and I kissed her and she held me tight and we kissed again and this time the kiss was longer and I knew something was happening. I was feeling a closeness and affection towards Tracy like I have never felt with anyone before. I took her in my arms and just held her and fixed the covers around her as we felt the cool fresh air flowing in the porthole beside the large bunk. I soon heard her soft breathing and knew she was asleep in my arms and I also drifted off to sleep. I woke once during the night and Tracy was flat against me with her head on my shoulder and my arm was down her back. When I woke in the morning Tracy was already out on deck and I could see she had showered already as the shower door was steamed. I shook myself awake, brushed my teeth, washed and went up on deck. Tracy greeted me with a hug and a soft kiss and a lovely little message in my ear, "thank you, Bobby for being such a sweetheart and for the wonderful night." I just smiled and didn't want to say something silly like "the pleasure was mine" so I just went with the smile and I think she got the message. We were making good time on the first leg of this trip and had actually got across what would be considered the most dangerous piece of water and it was a beautiful warm day so I went to the chart and decided that today Tracy and I would take it easy and goof off a bit. I knew a place that was just a couple of hours away from here that would be perfect to spend some time at. It was fairly late already as we had slept in after being so tired the night before so we had a quick breakfast and pulled up the anchor and headed north again. I had been to the Calvert Island hot pools before and decided to take Tracy there. It was about two in the afternoon when I dropped anchor in the secluded bay on the island. I ran the winch boom out over the side and hooked up on the twelve foot zodiac that had been on deck and put it over the side and tied it up along Tern. It was beautiful and warm so we put on our swim suits and that was the first close look I got of Tracy's body and she was beautiful, almost perfect. We packed a few snacks and took a bottle of wine packed in a bag of ice, a couple of wine glasses and some towels. We boarded the zodiac and the small Honda outboard started on the second pull and we took off up the inlet and we only had to go about half a mile before I nosed it into shore and Tracy jumped out on the gravel and pulled the boat up. We had to walk about a hundred yards up a trail and came to the first pool. The pools are formed in the rock and are about chest deep and fed with warm mineral water that runs out of the bank and there was three pools with the hottest being the closest one to the bank. The pools were crystal clear and clean smelling, not like sulphur pools. The minerals dont allow any vegetation to grow so the bottom is free of algae and all weeds. Tracy thought it was beautiful and waded into the shallow end and found a seat mid way up where the water was up to her neck. I sat beside her and had a convenient rock table almost by my arm where I laid out the small pack with our lunch and the wine. The warm water was so relaxing and not hot, just warm and nice I opened the wine and sat it back from the warm water and poured for Tracy and then for myself. We sat back and soon we were touching each other and then I had Tracy in my arms kissing her. She brought her arms around me and we sat in the warm water and hugged, laughed and played with each other. We spent almost two hours in the water and only when the wine was gone did we decide it was time to go back to the boat and by then I had explored much of Tracy and she had her hands on a good portion of me. Her skin was so soft but her body was firm and she seemed to be in shape. She also seemed to like the feel of my chest against her and seemed to like the feel of my arms around her. We rinsed ourselves in the cold water pool and returned to the zodiac hand in hand and went back to Tern. I think we both knew where we were going now. I think we both felt the sexual tension all the way back to the boat. We rushed putting things away and the moment we got to the boat's cabin we were in each others arms . Our lips were virtually fused on each other as we were both began breathing rapidly. I untied her bathing suit top and her beautiful breasts were released and she smiled as I looked in awe. They were firm and swollen with beautiful pink nipples pointing upward. Tracy was absolutely gorgeous and as I looked into her deep blue eyes I placed my hands on each breast and softy cupped them, rubbed the nipples, and her eyes never left mine. It was like she was offering them to me. I slid my arms under her and carried her easily to the middle of the bunk and drew the covers back. I hooked my fingers in the waist band of her wet bikini bottoms and slid them off as she raised her hips to assist me. She lay before me completely naked and she was beautiful. Her blonde hair was down over her breasts. Her skin was slightly tanned and she had a slim waist with hips that were smooth and shapely. She never made a move to hide herself and she never took her eyes off mine as she lay before me. Tracy was very special. All I could think of to say quietly at that moment was "oh god Tracy you're so beautiful" and that made her smile. I ran my fingers along her and her skin felt so soft as I circled the outside of her hips and then proceeded up the inside of her soft thigh until I was touching her soft tuft of almost invisible blonde hair. She took a deep breath as I felt the wetness of her soft lips and gently opened her slit with my finger. I heard her moan and felt her raise her hips to me. I uncovered her sensitive little button and rubbed it gently. She soon began moving her hips and moaning slightly. She began caressing my back. She trailed her hand down to the front of my bathing suit, hesitated and then felt my hardened cock through the cloth and I heard her gasp. I lifted up and slid them off and she brought her hand back. All she said was "oh my' as she ran her fingers all over it. She grasped it in her hand and gently stroked it and she seemed to be almost measuring me as she let her fingers move from the head to my balls as if she was fully exploring her new treasure. Tracy quietly whispered between breaths " I really want you Bobby." I kissed her long and deeply as I moved my fingers gently between her legs. She was like a young girl as her outer lips were firm and tight with soft inner lips. I gently slid my finger between them as I opened and penetrated her slightly. Tremors ran through her with a sharp intake of breath as I slowly worked my fingers in her wetness and then brought them to my lips and tasted her sweet nectar. Her sweet pure sexy essence filled my nostrils and I instantly felt more blood run into my cock and I was almost in pain. She began small movements. It was like she was releasing a pent up fury as she moved rhythmically against the fingers and in almost no time she clinched her legs moaned and then spread them wide and pulled me to her. I came over her body with my cock sticking straight out in front of me. I was so hard it was aching and I now had a droplet that had formed on the tip. I watched Tracy stare at it as I moved between her legs. She raised her knees and brought her arms up to bring me down to her with my cock almost touching her beautiful wet opening . I kissed her lips and eye lids as if I couldn't get enough of her and she talked to me between breaths. "I have never been with a real strong man like you Bobby." she hesitated a few seconds and added. "you are very big." She paused a moment almost in thought and then "but I want you so bad and I really want you to do it to me." I looked into her eyes and guided my cock and felt her wet inner lips against the tip and I pushed gently. She easily took the head into her and I immediately felt how tight she was and it was like she was squeezing me. I held myself back and then slowly moved into her as she helped take me into her smoothly and easily. She moaned softly as I kissed her and she sucked my tongue. I started to move in her and she began moving and starting to push towards me. I soon began the first very gentle fucking motions. Tracy brought her legs up over my back and joined my rhythm and soon had almost all of me in her and she became so soaked that we could hear the wet sounds above her steady moaning. I flexed my hips and moved in longer, deeper strokes and Tracy was now taking my whole cock and taking it easily and it was perfect. She was like a warm soft glove around me. Her face was against my neck and I could feel her lips all over me like she was happy and proud of herself. Her hands roamed up and down my back urging me as I started to move faster in her. I looked down at her and saw her mouth wide open and her head thrown back. She was starting to grind against me when I pushed against her soft mound on each thrust. I felt her hard nipples touching my chest as our lips were almost glued together. We breathed each others breath and I fucked her like that until we were soaked in sweat. Tracy moved her pelvis under me all the time in a perfect rhythm and she was absolutely wonderful. I began to feel tremors running through her body as she began licking my neck and moaning softly in my ear. She pushed up hard and clamped her legs around me so I couldnt move. Her whole body throbbed as she came so hard she whimpered and quivered in my arms. I stopped moving as she finished but she had got me so excited I starting to throb. I lifted my head to look deep into her eyes again and found them teary with desire. My body began to stiffen as my cock swelled larger and Tracy felt the change inside her and knew I was close. She brought her lips to my ear and whispered "do it inside me Bobby, I want to feel you in me." I gathered her into my arms and thrust deep and could feel her body begin to relax under me as my first hard warm spurt erupted inside her. I stopped moving and let it spurt while she held her breath for a second. Tracy caressed my back and urged me down fully on her as she wrapped her arms around me and totally accepted my warm seed deep inside her. I felt it subside and could feel the wetness between us as I looked down and Tracy was smiling at me. I smiled and kissed her forehead and then slid her legs down and brought them together still holding myself inside her. I turned us on our side with her body tight to me and pulled a blanket over us and held her close. Every few minutes one of us would increase the pressure or move a hand in a caress. It seemed to be a way to let the other know we were still there. Tracy seemed to be totally comfortable as I held her close with her head on my shoulder. It was as if he was in deep thought. One of her hands was gently combing the hair on my chest. She was the first to speak and quietly and very slowly began. "I have not been with many guys Bobby. I have never let myself go like I did with you and nobody has come close to giving me what you did." she paused, "Its the first time that I really wanted to do it again like I do right now." I kissed her forehead and noticed the tears in her eyes and told her I was so happy she didn't go home when Kevin left. She lightened up immediately and sat up. She smiled and looked down at me and laughed. "You got be kidding, there was no chance I was going home with him. I did everything I could to encourage him to leave. I knew what I was doing." With that we laughed and got up and slipped into some clothes and started looking to see what we could have for a late dinner. I still had to check out the boat and it was getting dark. We had dinner and cleaned up and checked the assortment of movies and put one in the player and Tracy cuddled into my arms and later as it cooled off inside I pulled a blanket over us as we watched the complete movie. We shut things down and slid into bed together wearing light sleeping clothes and soon we were asleep in each others arms. The next day we got up early and got a good start. The weather was gorgeous and we were both happy and I were really enjoying this trip now. Tracy had loosened up so much now and we talked about all kinds of things like her work with her father's company in Chicago. Our affection for each other flowed out into almost everything we did. I had never been around anyone that I was as comfortable with as Tracy. We just hit if off so perfect. For the next few days we made good time and each night we made love. Tracy was very comfortable and completely lacked any shyness towards me as she seemed happy and proud to show me every inch of her body and it was flawless. I absolutely loved oral with her as she was so sexy sweet down there and so responsive that I could bring her off in a matter of minutes. We liked the spoon position where I would enter her from behind and slowly just gently make love, fondle her breasts and use my hand between her legs until we both finished together. Each time we stayed like that and went to sleep. Late the following afternoon we arrived in Prince Rupert and I called some friends on the radio and we tied up at their private marina. I made a call to the Marriot hotel and got a deluxe tub room for us. I had decided to spend a day here and we left the docks hand in hand carrying our bags and picked up our ride in the Marriot's bus that took us to the hotel. We still had a portion of the afternoon to spend before evening and when we got to the room I opened the door into the jet tub room. I knew right then where we would probably spend some of the time. The tub was great, it was huge and it was built in an area that over looked the harbour and you could see miles out on the pacific ocean right from the tub. I slipped my shirt off and walked around the room in my jeans as Tracy settled down in a couch and picked up the phone. I could overhear her side of the conversation and I assumed that she was talking to her mother and it sounded like she was explaining how she was okay and why she didn't go home with Kevin. She seemed to be upset and at one point I heard her say " Mom, its too bad about Kevin". And then I heard her ask "will you be in Juneau when we get there?" I heard her assuring her mother for at least the fourth time that she was okay and then she said "Mom when we get there you will meet Bobby and Dad already knows him so you ask him." I gathered that her mom thought someone was attacking her daughter. Tracy finished her call and I slipped away so she wouldn't know I was eavesdropping. It was very interesting. She told me "Mom still thinks I'm sixteen" and she checked the room service menu and picked up the phone and we ordered a bottle of German white wine. The wine came almost within a few minutes and she slipped off her jeans and walked around in her light top and panties. As usual we met in the middle of the room and I had her in my arms. I kissed her and we stood with our arms around each other. She snickered a bit and went to the top button of my jeans and opened it and soon had them around my knees so I stepped out of them and she joked that now we were on equal ground. She pushed me backward until I was against a padded bar counter and kissed me lightly and smiled as she slid her hand down into my shorts and took my cock in her hand and stroked it and I could feel it starting to harden. She said to me "there is something I would like to try Bobby and I really want to do it for you." I wasn't sure what she meant and she added "just be patient with me and let me try it." She dropped down and slid my shorts down my legs to the floor and gasped my cock that was now quite hard. She went to her knees and I knew what she wanted to try and I softly touched her hair and she took it to mean yes from me. She touched my cock with her tongue and licked the head. She ran her tongue underneath it and down the underside of the now hard shaft as she cupped my balls and then opened her lips and took me inside her mouth. She knew what she wanted and she began sucking me and moving her head as she stroked it with her hand while she sucked. Tracy had me so excited that I already felt the tingling in my groin. I had to control the urge to grab her and thrust my cock into her mouth but she was already taking me down to the back of her throat and her hand on my balls was almost more then I could handle. Tracy was going to get me and it wasn't taking her long and I lost it and started to thrust and moan. I felt my cock throbbing and the feeling of needles going up my legs. I tried to pull it out from between her lips but she cried out and held me there and even put her arm around my leg holding me as I saw the saliva running down her chin and I thrust and she held me back and then I spurted and heard Tracy almost purring as I spurted again and she swallowed once and then she moved her lips off it and I could see the strings of semen as she took me back in again and sucked me until she had taken everything and licked it clean. She looked up at me with a cute sort of sheepish smile and said "I think I did okay." I didn't know what to say as she had me doing my best to try and hold onto the counter. We settled into the hot tub and turned on the jets with the bottle of wine beside us. I had her in my arms and it was warm and steamy. We spent almost an hour in the tub and then got out as our skin was starting to wrinkle up and we decided to go out for dinner. I got a reservation at the Keg as it was a place that was nice yet didn't require formal dress. We both had casual dress clothes with us so we started to get ready. Tracy had managed to keep her hair dry in the tub and she combed it out and then took her bag into the large bathroom. I slipped into a pair of casual slacks and an open style dress shirt. It was warm outside so I didn't need a jacket. I turned on the TV and waited for Tracy to change in the combination bathroom and change room. The door opened and Tracy came out into that main area and she was unbelievable. She had brushed her hair down over her shoulders and she was wearing some light makeup. She had on a pair of dress slacks and a light cotton top with a white sweater. She was wearing medium heels and she was stunning and gorgeous. I made her stand back so I could look at her and as she rummaged around getting ready to go I couldn't keep my eyes off her. All I could think was how unbelievable it was that this classy looking beauty was the same person that had been sleeping with me for the last few days and then it began to hit me. I don't know when it started but I suspect it was when I picked her up at the airport and it just built from there. It was finally sinking in that I was completely and madly in love with Tracy. We got down on the sidewalk and she had her arm in mine and we walked the short distance to the restaurant where we spent the next two hours having a leisurely dinner. We chatted and I couldn't take my eyes off her and she caught me a number of times looking in her eyes and she smiled. This was a classy lady you could be proud of anywhere. She was educated and smart yet she had that little streak of fun and devilment in her that would show up at times like this afternoon. She was athletic and was not afraid to do things and not afraid to get her fingers dirty. She loved boats and loved the water and yet could dress up at night and look like she did right now. She was just too perfect. Flight of the Tern We made love slowly in the large bed that night and as usual fell asleep in each others arms and woke late. We ordered breakfast in and decided to move out in the boat as it was a warm day and we decided to get a start on the last leg of the voyage that I didn't really want to end. We fuelled up the boat checked out everything and moved out of the harbour and steered the Tern north up the coast towards Alaska. For the next couple of days we ran almost all the way by sail. We entered the Gulf of Alaska and the warm winds moved us along and the sea was gentle. We alternated at the helm with me taking the majority of it and we spent a lot of time in each others arm at the wheel. We had a wonderful dinner one night as I went into the equipment that was on board and found fishing rods and a good assortment of lures. We were running on diesel and I had noticed some action earlier around some herring balls so I put out a green spoon and we slowed the boat and I caught a small Coho salmon that we barbecued when we got into the bay where we anchored that night. As usual we made love again that night and slept in each others arms and I could feel Tracy becoming a bit saddened and I knew it was because we were coming to the end of our voyage. I had to talk to her and I think she was waiting for me to say something and hoping. The following day which would be our last day as we would arrive in Juneau probably around noon the next day . She sat beside me at the helm. We were both a bit quiet. Tracy had her hand on me and I asked her outright. "So Tracy, where do we go from here? We don't just say goodbye tomorrow and go home do we?" She answered " I dont want to leave you at all, I would like to head the Tern back south and keep going." We talked about how she would have to return to Chicago and that both her mother and father were in Juneau now so she would stay there for a couple of days before she left. I dropped what I thought would be a total bombshell on her by telling her. "I don't want you to get away from me Tracy. I think you know that I love you." Tears welled up in her eyes and she moved between my arms on the wheel and said quietly and very deliberate "I have known I was in love with you Bobby from well before that day we went to the hot pools." She went on to say "I don't want to leave you but if I do it won't be for long, I'm not going to let you go." We left it at that and when we anchored in a cover thirty miles from Juneau that night we knew it would be our last night on the Tern. We made love about four times over the course of the night. Neither of us cared about sleeping. At one point we found Tracy just sitting on me with my cock lodged deep up inside her as she slowly moved on me. She had become used to me and she could take my cock very easy and knew just how and where to touch me and I knew her body like a book. I knew that she loved it when I sucked her inner lips below and I knew she liked the feel of my finger gently rubbing her clit when we lay in the spoon position and she knew that I liked to have my cock squeezed hard. I knew just how to make her come easy and she knew just how to keep me going all night and that night she did. We got up the next morning and didn't hurry . We had a slow leisurely shower in the very small shower stall but we managed to fit in it and I even managed to make love to Tracy against the wall and have her come with me for the last time for a while. We rested a bit and had breakfast and then I hauled the anchor and we started out on the last few hours of our trip. We arrived in Juneau and took Tern to the private marina and eased her into her own marked slip with the name "Tern" on a small carved board at the forward end. I checked out everything on the boat and we cleaned it all and it was ready to close up. Tracy made a phone call and her mother was on her way to pick us up. I told her I really didn't know whether to wait around or run and hide but Tracy just laughed and told me not to be silly. He mother turned out to be a wonderful person. She was almost an older version of her daughter and she made me completely comfortable the moment I met her. She took us to their home and told us they had made arrangements for us to go out for dinner with her and Tracy's dad. I went up to a room for a few minutes and then went for a walk to look around the beautiful grounds of their home. Tracy stayed and I could see she was in a deep conversation with her mother and at one point I saw her mother put her hand on Tracy's shoulder. We had a lovely evening as we went to a ocean front restaurant that overlooked the bay. I enjoyed the conversation and I knew Tracy's dad Ron Harmon as I had met him a few times in the company of my father and he was a very good guy. But this was a bit different circumstance but it went well. These people could see the way Tracy and I acted together that there was a serious bond between us and there was little doubt that more had happened then just driving the boat up here. They could see the interaction between us and at one point I saw her mother smiling at us. Much of the conversation seemed to be directed at me as I knew Tracy's mother was checking me out and I felt a bit like I was under a microscope. I don't know all of what the conversation with her daughter was in the house but I know she was taking an unusual interest in me. But like her daughter she was also a real sweetheart and I got along with her great. The next morning Tracy and I said our goodbyes at the airport and we had agreed that she would call me when she got back to Chicago and set up a time to meet as soon as possible and to talk to each other. I hugged her and she had tears running down her cheeks as I noticed her mother standing back. I went over and hugged her and she whispered in my ear " I will see what I can do" and I was puzzled by what that meant by that and then a final hug for Tracy. I went and boarded the plane and took off for Vancouver. I got in around noon and it was Thursday so I went home and phoned in that I wasn't going to be in to work until Monday. I spent the weekend around my place and did a little work on my car and sort of reflected on the last couple of weeks. I got into work on Monday and checked out the boat yard and then went over to our large main office and said hello to a few of the people there and checked my mail. Our receptionist told me there was someone waiting for me in my office and I took my mail and headed around the corner. When I opened the door the first thing I saw was Tracy turning away from the large window and coming towards me. All I could think to say was "oh my god" and I hugged her so hard I lifted her right up off the ground and asked her "when did you get here, how come your here?" "It seems you really won over my mother Bobby. Your father and mine chatted over the weekend and it seems there is an instant opening in the Island Marine accounting department. I'm here for the interview." I almost couldn't believe it and smiled at her "did they warn you that I'm in charge of the interviews for those positions?" "its okay if you don't hire me. I will just hang around your place". I kissed her forehead, "and I will stay home too. I'm sure we will find something to do" and we both laughed . I introduced Tracy around the office and then we just took off for the day. Tracy stayed in Victoria and became the assistant head of our accounting department. We were married in Juneau in the fall. The highlight of the wedding was at the reception when her father took us aside and presented us with some papers and transfer certificates that he would take to the lawyers office on Monday to be completed. As a special wedding gift to both of us he was giving us the sailboat , Tern.
