Female names are for ships of the line like in the old English wooden
navy days.

Yes, right. You mean names like 'Indomitable', 'Victory', 'Invincible',
'Nonsuch', 'Terror', 'Formidable' and suchlike I assume. Women like that
would scare the hell out of me.


Good to know that you know your place in the grand scheme of things.

"Formidable Karin"

:-D

You missed the ever popular "Dreadnought".

"Dreadnought"is a generic term for large war ships, not a name.

No kidding? What a shock. I must've opened the wrong Schrodinger box
and now I'm in a different quantum. Where I come from:

Thanks but no thanks. Those names are stupid sounding.

Sorry, I was trying to think of "descriptive" names for a small boat
not built for blue water sailing but out there anyway.

Well, I did it. I'm now the proud re-owner of a Mac 26X and a fine one
she is if I must say so myself. I got her at a real bargain basement
price, yes siree! Before I launch her for the first time I've got a
couple things I want to do. First is to rename her. I don't like the
present name at all.

I'm torn between a couple of different names.

1) Symbiosis (comment on how well sail and power are built into one
boat)
2) Sea's Son (double entendre)
3) Sensibility (descriptive)
4) Plaid Power (rather Scottish a compliment on MacGregor, I guess he's
Scottish)

What one do you think is best?

Dont forget the ever popular:

Blow Job
Wet Spot
Breakin WInd

etc..............

I've got it down
to between "Senseless" or "Stupidity".
I think either of these two names fit a Mac26X



it says more about the sailor, than the boat.
