No more boatless!

[Michel]

I bought a nameless boat! The poor thing! No un-naming to do!

I made the board scratch proof. It should be OK.

I should try her sometime this week....I hope so!...

I cannot understand people so thoughtless they fail to give their boat a name. It is good that you bought her Michel, you are a true man of the sea and would never allow a boat to go through life unnamed, unloved, forlorn and embarrassed when other boats in the marina say to her "Hi, my name is Sanderscree, what's yours?" I have named every boat I have ever owned, starting with my first Styrofoam 11 foot board boat purchased sight unseen for $75.00. That was the Patty Ann. A boat is a living creature and as such deserves all the care, love devotion and yes a name you can give her

One more thing.....YOUTUBE VIDEOS. Don't forget.

I have a name but I will not say it until the ceremony is done.
Youtube for sure!

There it is! The name is "Papou" It sounds "Papoo" to you my english speaking friends! Papou is the name my grandchildren call me!

That boat moves well in almost no wind at all!

Excellent name Michel. Well done. Have you had a chance to sail Papou yet?

[Michel]

Yes Jacques! I was pleased by the way it moves in almost no wind at all! Now I will have to remember that she is a dinghy when the wind will pump up!

(There is a short video just up your last post)

Original sails Michael?

[Michel]

I think so. There is still some life in them and I don't race!
