Why doesn't anyone talk about the issues of sex on a boat? Are there any issues? Such as noise, privacy, and all the other stuff?

It's something is going with cruising and nobody talks about it.

Hi, I'm new here, and this subject is very much up my ally so to speak having raised a family afloat and manage the stress of that and have a vibrant sex life too.
I remember hard hands and salty hair is a turn off no matter where.
Where I've been very fortunate to have a partner share this life, I always advise those wanting the same to take the lady out on a lovely calm day to a magical bay and have a picnic, then if willing let the passion unite you both into the world of raw nature, where together you will face many challenges that will test that bond.

Sunset sail, to "Dock and dine" at a nice restaurant. Watch the sun set from the dinner table. Leave the restaurant about 9:00pm. Enjoy a full moonlit cruise, clipping along at 4 knots, tiller pilot on... let the chips fall where they may.

Great thread, keep it PG.

Many of you may not be aware of this little known fact; The forward hatch was invented for sticking ones head out and checking for lobster pots when "underway".

So if you see me sail by, no one is at the helm, and my head is sticking out of the hatch you will have a pretty good idea of what is going on down there.

edit: If you see me get off the boat alone, then it'll be easier to narrow down.

It amazes me this thread has 33 pages yet contributes virtually nothing to the practice of sailing.
However, being 25 and a live aboard in college, I can say chicks dig the boat thing. However, that will just get them to come check it out.
Whether on a boat, in a car, or on your parents sofa-- you still gotta know how to close the deal.
The boat helps though haha

It's a breath of fresh air that no one has tried to ruin this thread with anything about the practice of sailing, other than to note that autopilot comes in very handy at certain times! Gratefully, this thread stayed true to its title; while sex in one's home ashore may not require any special tips and advice, the small confines and quirks of a boat do present a different set of challenges, and seemingly endless opportunities for some lighthearted humor.
