I do worry if one has to make a VHF call that it sounds daft...

Pirate's Nutz calling Coastguard...

May Day May Day May Day this is Fat Hull Sally I repeat...

I called mine Yellow 3 because it's yellow and has three hulls. Say it as you see it as the catchphrase goes...

Got my TI about a month ago and was all set on naming it "Salty Dog". Then I got in it and realized it just had to be "Greyhound"! Satisfied that I was keeping with the vodka and grapefruit juice theme, ordered vinyl stickers and "Voila"!

We had it up around 9 knots, so it's already lived up to its' name. Took it crabbing and now it can be called a workhorse too!

L O V E IT!!

As you can see, I'm having a bit of trouble attaching a photo. I have new Mac and can't quite figure some tasks out yet. Will re-post after I do.

I sold my Subaru WRX STi, to fund my TI and new tow wagon and trailer.

The WRX had custom plates "SIC EM" (a famous Antz Pantz undies TV advert had a luscious young thing covered in crawling ants telling her anteater to "Sic 'em Rex") so in memory of my WRX (and that cute TV ad), my TI is called "SIC EM" too, which is not a bad name in its own right I reckon

Thinking of naming mine “@ WORK” that way when people call while I am on the water I can tell them I'm at work I'll call you when I get home. :mrgreen:
