Rufus "L"

are two locally named boats.

Far Canal is another I have seen.

However sailing yesterday I heard a scratchy communication that sounded like
Pan Pan Pan

I listened again and sure enough there is was again. I answered, asking the
vessel making the call whether they were amking a distrass call.

Thye response was the vessel they were calling was Fern

Message was "Fern" "Fern" "Fern" and in the static sounded almost like Pan
Pan Pan....so I was wrong....no need to cancel my Coastguard membership.

Also knew of a lawyer's boat named "The Courthouse." His secretary
would tell clients that he was not in because he was at the

We once saw a boat called "Job Site". I could imagine the owner's
secretary telling people "He's out on the job site and can't be
reached."
