I do. She's called Flying Tadpole II

We know. We know. But she looks weird. As we were rowing back in from the mooring this afternoon, I looked back at
Chanteuse...she is such a pretty, pretty boat. And she sits there so well (there are some boats out there that are DEFINITELY
of the hulky type persuaion). I lashed down the main sail cover and put on a second safety tie on the furler for the storms
tonight. They're predicting some really heavy winds...it was gusting 25 when we left...

The onset of alt.alien.vampires and Madam Vinyl has confused
you. Flying Tadpole II is a true gem, whether under sail or not,
a masterpiece of the designer's art, and a credit to her
builder. Far form looking weird, she lifts the romance in
evrybody's heart, and tugs the heartstrings of all seekers after
true beauty. Why, in her campaigning days, was she the most
photographed boat in those huge fleets? Cameras were just
automatically drawn to her style, her simplicity and her speed.

Lady Kate, however, can only offer a certain pugnacious charm in
her looks. Her multitude of virtues lie elsewhere. Don't confuse
the two.
