Not that I’m superstitious but on my last boat I removed everything with the boats name on, tipped a stiff drink over the side so the god of the seas liked his new vessel and still kept her original name. 
must have worked because I didn’t sink. 
not that I’m superstitious or anything

Welcome to the forum BigA. Hope to hear more about how you get on with your new boat. Hope you have many wonderful days on her.

:default_welcome:

Are you intending to keep the name 'May' or rename her?

Helen

Change the name ? i thought that was a big NO ?

We will be keeping the name May, suites her (and helps me remember the month i got married)

Welcome along. Look forward to hearing how you feel about boat ownership. We’ve not been brave enough to take that step! 😂

not sure at the moment if brave is the right word :default_biggrin: but time will tell.

I know someone who can get his boat to turn green without involving paint in the process at all! :default_biggrin:

So successfully, that he's having another crack at it. Going even bigger with it this time. If it works this time he could be making the paint manufacturers lose enormous amounts of revenue
