i had a farr design a few years ago that was slightly smaller than i would have liked it to be. nearly called it 'not farr enough' :D ...but the boat already had the best name so stayed with that.

cheers,

Depending on your musical taste and whether or not you are a Marshall Crenshaw fan:

Even without the musical reference, I think the names works. (Think PHRF ratings etc.)

If you don't like the name, you can always rename her after you buy the boat. SA AD

 
At Airlie beach race week was a 27 footer called "ya mum". Each morning we waited as the skipper called RC with "we have 5 on "ya mum" and calls through the race of "we are climbing on top of ya mum," etc. I thought it was amusing, but then I should get out more!

Was 199661 the last Laser ever to be built whose number will appear the same while turtled??

There will be a gap until you get to the patterns that start with a 6. 600009, 666999, etc. Another gap until the patterns starting with 9. 900006, 999666, etc

This shit has to stop.

A month ago I found the tune

Stand by me

I hate, absolutely detest, boat names consisting of puns. I don't really mind names that are from classic songs though. And a few of my friends have boats named after Grateful Dead songs -- as far as I can tell, there is about a 100% chance of the owner being a great guy if his boat's named after a Dead tune! I'm not a particularly big fan of the GD. It's just one of those correlations I have noticed.

Anyone who's boat is name Knot Again, or For Sail (or Fore Sail), Scratching Bottom, Wind Dancer, etc. etc. ... it's practically guaranteed that the owner will annoy the piss out me (unless, I suppose, that was simply the name when they bought it).

A cute boat name is a little bit like having a Lynrd Skynrd quote in your HS yearbook. It seemed like a good idea at the time but years later, odds are it's become positively cringe-worthy.

just for Guv, saw this the other day on an opti.... in case you forgot the lyrics

Love Is Like Oxygen

Love is Like Oxygen:

You get too much, you get too high,

Not enough and you're gonna die.

Love gets you high.

Love is Like Oxygen: (Love is Like Oxygen)

You get too much, you get too high, (Love is like oxygen; Too high)

Not enough and you're gonna die. (Love is like oxygen; Gonna die)

Love gets you high.

There was a ship named Armed Sea Lion, vessel traffic was heard warning of 'Armed Sea Lion, inbound 18 knots'. We were hoping Herschel wasn't back from California and pissed.
