Lost my nerve (boat names)
Industry Canada is processing my MMSI application and asked me what I would like to use for a vessel name .....

I wanted to call it Pond Scum - I really did!

But I couldn't do it .....

It will be Privateer instead ....

"Lost My Nerve" sounds pretty good, imho.

I'm in the process of divorcing a Daphne...not a good option IMHO. I second "Lost My Nerve" or "Just Couldn't"

It took me two years to decide on a name for my last boat...
How about a pic so we can come up with some more (inspired ) alternatives...

Subsequent to my last divorce I bought a new boat and named it "unreasonable behaviour" just as it had appeared on the petition. Regretted it later,we are still friends.
