Mar. 19, 2007 - getting ahead of myself |
This must be the most active sailing blog on the planet at the moment!... sorry! i'll get back to a more normal routine soon no doubt....
In the meantime, not wanting to get too far ahead of myself, but the other major cahllnge we have is a new name..... SWMBO definitely isn't keen on the current name, and I can't say it does a great deal for me either.... not being superstitious, I'm happy to change it... good excuse for a bottle of bubbly anyway!
We've wracked our brains over the last few weeks on the off chance of a boat happening by, and still a little stuck!.... only thing that has got close is to use the affectionate name we gave Magna Carter, Maggie, and perhaps call her Maggie II, but i'm not 100% convinced by that yet... it might however be all we have! |

Mar. 19, 2007 - Name change |
| Posted by OliveOyl |
Supposed to be unlucky??? Have bad vibes about Morgan(a) - did nasty things to King Arthur, but maybe didn't see the right films. Popeye doesn't share my aversion to the name. How about "Morgana Carter"? Can't be many of those around!!!
Anyway, congrats to you all - new boat, old house, all nicely done up, so the winter wasn't wasted, and C gets to keep her newly painted bedroom, a real win/win, n'est-ce pas?
So we will be seeing the new boat in Oostende, end May? Wow!
Nice piccies, any chance of you posting full spec? |
