World Naked Sailing Day | August 1
Hi all- today is The Inaugural World Naked Sailing Day | August 1 It all started with theWorld Naked Bike Ride, which continues to gain momentum. The annual bike ride led to World Naked Gardening Day, an event that immediately appealed to Buffalonians (see why). It soon became apparent... Check out the story of Buffalorising.com or our social sites. Help us get more people interested in this event! Thanks, Jessica.
It's nice to see a day dedicated to my favorite pass time. Still, there are many of us who don't wait and sail nude whenever the conditions permit.
And a bit of sailing lore: While it was once considered bad luck to have a woman aboard, it was also believed that a woman's bared breasts would calm a stormy sea... that was the reasoning behind figureheads of women with bared breasts.
I don't know about you, but I have always figured it was a good idea to have women aboard, especially if they were willing to bare themselves along with the rest of the crew.
