She's now considering naming it: "Knot Your's" I guess that ended *that* discussion. ROTFL!!!!! Reminds me of the time when my wife purchased her two blue point Siamese kittens. She was trying out names and nothing seem to fit, so I suggested Daisy and Mersey. They became Daisy and Mersey. And when her friends say "how cute" do you think I get any of the credit? NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! All the best, Tom -------------- "What the hell's the deal with this newsgroup... is there a computer terminal in the day room of some looney bin somewhere?"

I suppose any suggestions in the vein of C-Horse or similar would be out of the question? Just trying to get you on her good side. :) Later, Tom |

In addition to her horses, (Casey and Sebastian), my future boat captain also has three "Westie" dogs, two males and one female. The males are on borrowed time, being 14 and 13.5 years old. The female is around 3 years I guess. Names: Major, Minor and Molly. This is why I am staying out of boat names. Actually, Major is the major (intended) reason we are still hanging around up here. The vet says he hasn't long to go, but the dog doesn't seem to understand this. So, here I sit on my boat with the heat on, watching it rain, sleet and snow, drumming my fingers on the table and waiting for the "time" to come. Eisboch |

First dog I had in the Corps was named Major - a gorgeous gray/sable Belgian Tervuren - what a dog that was. Great personality, wonderful disposition and fierce as a SOB when he was in battle mode. Unfortunately, retired early because he had a bad hip that showed up after about a year in service. What a great dog though. Lived out his retirement on a cattle farm in Wyoming. Actually, Major is the major (intended) reason we are still hanging around up here. The vet says he hasn't long to go, but the dog doesn't seem to understand this. So, here I sit on my boat with the heat on, watching it rain, sleet and snow, drumming my fingers on the table and waiting for the "time" to come. I understand - it's hard to let go. Live long and prosper, Tom |

Subject: Now, onto names
From: Eisboch She's now considering naming it: "Knot Your's" I guess that ended *that* discussion. How about: Mrs. E's My Grand Baby My Baby Grand All For One Soon Come (an island saying meaning: "relax, it will get here sooner or later." Which is the style of travel on a 8 knot boat. :-) ) Summer Wind Or she could name her boat "The Tortoise and you rename you'r boat "The Hare" Capt. Bill |

Subject: Now, onto names
From: Harry Krause It doesn't pay to name a boat in a way that is going to cause one's wife grief. Not to mention in this case it's HER boat. Capt. Bill |

And more importantly, my wife wouldn't let me use the name I want. So since I will not likely ever use my favorite name, I grant it to you, if you want it: "Pain in the Stern" I like it. I'll put it on her list. Thanks. But, every boat should have a name, even if it's not plastered on the transom or sides. Even my 8 ft. Walker Bay has a name. Eisboch |
