Greetings all... (Happy New Year too)

I was at a marina the other day, and saw a wonderful name
on a little boat that was attached to the back end of a
big boat. The little boat was named "Paid IV". But the name
on the bigger boat was "Not Paid IV".


There is one locally Named Katy Do and the dink is Katy Did

I once saw a boat named "Kumquat May" with dinghy called "Kumquat
Mite".

My favourite telling name is "Yes Dear." There is a story behind that
one.

There used to be a boat here that is now in St Augustine named
She Got The House.

The two most important words!

I still think the boat should name herself, though. HER name shouldn't
be what you're going through, it should describe HER. Pat and I
discussed "Blissfull Lee"'s possible new name one day while we scrubbed,
as we didn't feel that the existing name described her properly. That
night as we slept onboard, we both dreamed about Xanadu. That decided
it, other than my fracturing French to tell others she was for two.

For a decade, Xan-a-Deux has been our private pleasure dome with rare
incursions of our best friends.

Since we recognised our owner's wishes, she hasn't let us down. As
operated by the previous owners, she was marginally sufficient.
