Below Her Deck: The Feminization of a Young Man

Book excerpt: Riley has spent his whole career working on commercial cargo boats and the odd fishing vessel, but his dream has been to work on yachts. One day, the crewing agency gives him a call. There’s a yacht with an opening in Norway, and Riley doesn’t hesitate to accept the job. But the crew was expecting a woman for the interior crew, not a man for a deckhand. On this particular yacht, with this particular chief stewardess, there are no male stews. But with a charter starting in just a day, they will have to make do.
