After 6 years of refinishing, rebuilding, and/or replacing everything but her name, and after getting tired of repeating, spelling, and explaining the name Tullamore (which in Irish literally means Big Hill <?>), I have decided that the yellow M17 #200 needs a new, easy to remember, name. Radio transmissions to ports and marinas are usually answered with silence and then "Um... OK, uh...Skipper". So....after due ceremony and ritual observations, she will be renamed CornDog.
Yes, I know, I risk the wrath of the sea and my wife, but it was time. If that name can't be understood or remembered I'll give up and everyone can continue to refer to her as "that yellow one".
