Default Silly Question


"River Wild" wrote in message
om...
Okay, this is a silly question, but has anybody here ever "named" a
kayak before?


Not a kayak, but my canoes have names. My first "real" canoe was a
ex-rental Mad River Eclipse with "BLEM" stenciled in red on the inside. :-)
My buddy was so impressed with that canoe's performance compared to my old
flat-bottom fiberglass junker, he said it couldn't have been a blem.
Instead, he figured it must have once belonged to a dyslexic named "Mel"
with a last name that began with "B." So the eclipse was henceforth known
as "Mel B."

When a shiny new Bell NorthWind was added to the stable, no names came to
mind. We have ended up referring to it as "Bell B."

Good paddling,
Bob Scott
