So tell us what your boat's name is, and why you named it that.

Fresh Breezes- Doug King

Actually, Doug, that's a good launch for a new thread....

We named our boat "Chanteuse" because, of course, she's French and
needed a French name, but we also wanted to incorporate something
personal, as we have with all our boats. After test sailing her, we
noticed that she sings when she's zipping along, plus the connection
with my then avocation of singing. Hence "Chanteuse": female singer.

RedCloud is named after a strong American who never gave up fighting to
be free.

Much of Red Cloud's life was spent at war, first and most often against
the neighboring Pawnee and Crow, at times against other Oglala. In 1841
he killed one of his uncle's primary rivals, an event which divided the
Oglala for the next fifty years. He gained enormous prominence within
the Lakota nation for his leadership in territorial wars against the
Pawnees, Crows, Utes and Shoshones.

Beginning in 1866, Red Cloud orchestrated the most successful war
against the United States ever fought by an Indian nation. The army had
begun to construct forts along the Bozeman Trail, which ran through the
heart of Lakota territory in present-day Wyoming to the Montana gold
fields from Colorado's South Platte River. As caravans of miners and
settlers began to cross the Lakota's land, Red Cloud was haunted by the
vision of Minnesota's expulsion of the Eastern Lakota in 1862 and 1863.
So he launched a series of assaults on the forts, most notably the
crushing defeat of Lieutenant Colonel William Fetterman's column of
eighty men just outside Fort Phil Kearny, Wyoming, in December of 1866.
The garrisons were kept in a state of exhausting fear of further
attacks through the rest of the winter.

Red Cloud's strategies were so successful that by 1868 the United
States government had agreed to the Fort Laramie Treaty. The treaty's
remarkable provisions mandated that the United States abandon its forts
along the Bozeman Trail and guarantee the Lakota their possession of
what is now the Western half of South Dakota, including the Black
Hills, along with much of Montana and Wyoming.

That and she's red and rides like a cloud.

The last two boats:

CYGNUS - constellation, Swan, we bought the boat with that name and
refused to anger the gods by changing the name, having no trust in the
half dozen or so name changing rituals that we happened upon.

FAUX PAS - more a testimony to our behaviour while we owned it, not
the boats general demeanor. We did change that boats name from
WHIRLAWAY and I'm positive we angered the gods in the process.
