Very interesting: I, too, sank mine after changing the name (Shalmar to
Aiki). Indeed, she hit a reef in Indonesia and was totally lost only a few
days after receiving the new registration certificate. I didn't even have
time to paint the new name on the boat.....

I'm not really superstitious but the last 2 boats I changed the name
of sunk. How does a person change the name of a boat without
aggravating the marine Gods?
