In Response To: Off Topic: Boat Names? (Robert Owens)

My Osprey is the "Heart of Gold" after the ship in the Douglas Adams "Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy." That ship was powered by an infinite improbability drive (suppose you'd have to read it.)

My successfully building a kayak and infinite improbability seemed to go together.

My wife's upcoming boat will be Cirdan, after the shipwright in Tolkien's work.
