As you know I used to run boats "up the reef". We could take 250 out to the reef on the biggest boat. I did find it amusing that many southern bells would buy more demure bikinis while in the more conservative Whitsundays. They felt uncomfortable in those see through crocheted things they wore on Sydney beaches, in family resorts.
However this did not stop them wanting to go naked in nature, out the reef.
I installed a large pontoon base, which had a swim platform about 8 meters long. It was a large grate at water level, allowing every one to get in or out of the water, only about 5 meters off the drying reef.
I found it amusing that quite a few young women, who obviously sunbathed topless on southern beaches, did not get their tops off on the pontoon. They would get into the water, than take their tops off, [& sometimes their bottoms], handing them to someone, or tying them to the grate, before swimming off.
Equally amusing, when a group did this, was the sight of a mixture of tanned & untanned bottoms bobbing along on top of the very clear water, when they started snorkeling.
Perhaps Lexi, you could suggest why it was only the ladies who indulged in this communing with nature. Not ever did I see a bloke do the same trick, although sometimes they were standing on the grate, holding their ladies gear.
