Cheesey69 Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 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 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stumpy Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 Welcome to the forum and the empty pockets and big cheesey grin club, BigA. I've been told it's not easy to rename a boat in Norfolk because four and twenty virgins are needed for the ceremony 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turnoar Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 Don’t paint the boat green... but if it’s green already that’s fine, to repaint green, apparently. Good luck with your new Birchwood! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regulo Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 I know someone who can get his boat to turn green without involving paint in the process at all! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
