Everything was automated and the latest model onboard. The only exception was in the communications area-an old radio was still used. There was no satellite telephone on this yacht. Mr. Anthony (Tony) Rialto preferred it that way. He had many times told Captain Katherine Vosney that when onboard he preferred no outside disturbances.
Everything could be, and was, operated by a single person-the Captain. She didn't mind being the only "crew" on the yacht, it was a job that paid well and she was able to put nearly her whole paycheck into savings. For a woman of only 32, she was finally near to being financially independent. At that time, she would decide what she wanted to do with the rest of her life.
"Captain, I'll have supper on the top deck." Mr. Rialto informed Katherine via the intercom system. "Yes, sir. It will be ready shortly," she replied. As she finished the salad and barbequed chicken-extra spicy, just as he preferred, Katherine started loading the dumbwaiter with dinner.
"Bring your dinner up here as well Captain," Mr. Rialto told her. Surprised, Katherine put her own plate on the dumbwaiter alongside his and added the chilled pitcher of iced tea. Usually she took her meals on the main deck just outside of the kitchen as Mr. Rialto was a solitary person and preferred to eat alone.
"He probably wants to go ashore to one of those islands we are approaching and play his little "what if" games again," Katherine thought with some disdain.
Mr. Rialto would sometimes sit on a deserted beach and ponder what-if's...what if he were stranded alone?...what if he were hurt?...what if he could never again return to civilization and was condemned to life on a deserted island?
Katherine thought this habit was a waste of time that could be spent looking at the beauty of nature, admiring all the animals found in the oceans and on the islands. During his excursions she often went scuba-diving nude on the opposite side of the yacht from Mr. Rialto. The feel of the ocean sliding along her skin and seeping into her most intimate of places made her incredibly horny.
After these diving trips she invariably went to her suite and masturbated with her favorite vibrator. By the time he was ready to return to the yacht Katherine would be dressed once again in her "uniform" of blue shorts and a red T-shirt. It was a perk that he didn't believe in having her wear an actual Captain's uniform.
Reaching the top deck she stood for a moment and studied her boss. He was a very fit man with an incredible body. Mr. Rialto was rarely lacking in feminine company, when he so desired it. Raven black hair shaded a face tanned by the many cruises taken and framed his jade-green eyes. Katherine had heard that he was a shark in the boardroom, unmerciful in his business dealings and ruthless against any competition.
"Mr. Rialto, dinner is ready. I've made barbequed chicken, garlic and cheddar mashed potatoes and a salad," Katherine said as she approached the dumbwaiter to retrieve their meal.
"Thank you Captain. I'm sure it will be as delicious as usual. You are quite an accomplished cook," Mr. Rialto said while studying the skyline. "Did you remember the iced tea?," he inquired of her.
"Yes, sir. Just the way you like it with honey and lemon," she replied. Katherine set dinner on the table in front of Mr. Rialto, serving his dishes first.
"I've been watching the radar and it looks as though we are in for a storm sometime tonight. Judging from the density of the clouds and the current wind patterns, it could possibly be a rough night," Katherine informed him.
