Some boats are really memorable - anyone racing Laser 4000s about
five years ago must remember a yellow boat called 'Chunky Monkey' - the name was massive, and it was great when you were racing to talk about, 'the 'Chunky Monkeys' have just tacked,' much better for communication than just a sail number... I wonder where the boat is now - as I know the couple who owned it are now living in America... does it still have its name? |

Reminds me of the Laser 5000 they built in red with 'HARKEN' all down the side ( and on the sails and spars ). Couldn't exactly miss it!

I remember the Harken 5000, it got T-boned back in 2000, lovely kite-pole shaped hole!! Does anyone remember what that pink and yellow I14 was called, 'granny' something i think. Ostraker- how about Frank Bruno or Muhammad Ali, i.e. both heavyweight contenders. |

My boat above "Fud Pucker" was a Contender , I was going to call the next one "Fud Pucked" it has weight connotations if your mind is twisted like mine ,I never used the name , but you can have it . Fud Pucker went to Shetland .

I reckon 'Slug' (or 'Fat Slug') would be quite funny (it would make me
laugh anyway) - but you'd need to be fast! |
