In Response To: Do you name your boats? (Andy Miller)

Both my wife and my brother-in-law come to the same conclusion independently and called mine the "Titanic" at first. They changed that to "Skunk Work" and "Anton LaPeew" after my yak was accidentally christian by my friendly neighborhood skunk which seems to like hanging around my backyard at night a lot.

: Are kayaks like ocean liners or yachts?
: Do they get launched with champaign?
: Do you name your boats?
: Do you paint the name on the stern?
: Are kayak builders superstitious?
: What else do I need to know before I launch her? (Not ready for another month
: or two but I want to be prepared.)
