Moral: don't paint the name on the boat until AFTER the divorce and
settlement are final.

Ho-ho, STARBOARD!! "Final" is an illusion - such things get people
dragged back into court anytime by inspiring creative attacks even
years later; the list of "possiblities" is endless, and their outcomes
unpredictable. It is always better to avoid any appearance of
spitefulness or "nyah-nyah's". In fact, the best strategy is to
invite them for a sail once or twice - they will usually refuse, and
one has bought goodwill. Should they accept, one need only provide an
inoperative head, bad snacks, stiff vintage kapok lifejackets, John
Cage on the stereo and an empty booze locker. :-)
