You're right Alan. I see some of these around the marina I'm at!
I didn't notice Nirvana or Ladyhawk, our last and current boat. I guess that means we're unique!
A couple others we see are, "She got the house", "Ship Happens", Kiss My Aft", "Passing Wind", and my favorite, a lobsterman's boat called "Jock's Trap"!
