Stus-List Boat names and history

Always a fun thread. My first boat, an Alan Gurney design Oday 27, was called "Luffer" when I bought it. Needless to say, that's not me. Renamed it "Steinlocker". I'd just come back from 3 weeks in New Zealand and had discovered Steinlager beer and its involvement with the round the world race

Back in 1988 I crewed on a J24 in the Worlds, held in Kingston. The J24 was named “Jail Bait” air brushed on in bright pink script. My wife and I were towing the boat (with a small RV) from Seattle to Kingston. After a few days she commented on how many truck drivers were checking her out. Ma

I once delivered a boat called "Bwana". That got some interesting reactions. Peregrine is so named because my father named his C&C 27 Peregrine. That boat holds many wonderful memories of growing up cruising the Canadian Southwest every school holiday. I couldn't think of a better way to honor my

Re: Stus-List Open House--Now boat names

My current boat, when I bought it, was named Gringo. That’s throwing down the gauntlet in an area such as South Florida, which has a large Hispanic population. After getting a couple of odd reactions from bridgetenders on the way home after buying it, I quickly changed the name. Jack Brennan F
