  • Shirtless deckhand leaning against the boom

    He does not appear to have slept for days, I expect he was tied-up. (formerly for sale on Ebay)

  • Lean sailor on the fantail/poop deck/stern

    You know, the more I look at this young man, the more I think he is rather sexy.

  • Lean sailor wearing either skivvies or swimshorts

    And what an impressive hose - so neatly stacked, too! I do so admire a tidy man, don't you?

  • Two fit young men in swimwear on the deck of a small craft

    Possibly US sailors, but I can not be certain. And I am slightly worried about the expression on the more chunky one's face . . .

  • US Navy recruits undergoing swimming instruction

    Pretty essential for a sailor, one would have thought. I am surprised it was not a requirement when enlisting.

  • US Navy recruits undergoing instruction in the use of a flotation device - circa 1960s

    I have marked my choice.


  • US Navy recruits having a life saving class in a swimming pool - circa 1960s

    Not only do the recruits look terribly cold, but the majority of them look like rural folk from Kentucky or West Virginia.

  • US Navy life saving class (2)

    Oh, how lovely! I am sure there were a few "accidents" during this lesson.


  • US Navy recruits inb the swimming pool at the Great Lakes Naval Center

    Hold my vermouth, dear, I am jumping in!

  • US Navy life saving class . . .

    This technique can be used in a variety of situations.

  • US Navy recruits having a splendid time on the cargo nets, 1943

    This gives me an idea for my next pool party!


  • US sailors sunbathing on deck

    I suppose the one sitting in the chair is an officer? Anyway, I just thought I would let you know that I am "reserving" the handsome chap in white swimwear, front row, second from right of picture.

  • Another "Swim Call" for some US sailors - circa 1950s


  • US sailors enjoying a "Swim Call"



  • Sailor boys in the surf


  • Eight sailors struggling manfully in the surf against quite a pronounced sloping horizon

    Ooh, ooh, I think Mr. Scumbeast is going to like this one! ;-)
