Rite the class rules state that my boat MUST have a name. Its a Pearce 6 International Moth, white with grey mesh trampolining and grey non slip. All spars are carbon as well as foils and are clear coated so they are black, the rack tubes are black also. Sail number GBR 3978. Its not a tiger moth design so calling it tiger is out of the picture. Names so far include:

Freak
Vité
Blanc Canvas
Balls

so if you can think of anything original and apt then put it down

thanks

I take it its not a foiler, and I guess its as slim on the waterline as all the others so there's "Cutting Edge", or "Leading Edge", or with a bit of a pun on "noble" meaning "fine" you could have "Fine Edge".

I would call it something completely random and with no connected meaning.

A man went to the doctors saying "you've got to help me I think I'm a moth."  "Well I can't help you" said the doctor, "you need to go and see a shrink, what made you come into my surgery",

 

"well the light was on"

so how about 'into the light'

  kids, these days   

 

Honestly, Wave Rider, the proud owner of that Moth is Chris Noble - I was trying

But yeah,  it's funny - and somehow, I don't think Chris will shortlist THAT name now!
