    I'm sure there's a story or special meaning behind that name.
    Care to share it? :)

    Where would you sail in her?
    What would be her first missions?

    Be nice to sail her around Vancouver Island and check out some of the areas that can only reached by boat. Not sure if  I would have a mission. Cheers!

    I'd love to do something like that in the summer.
    Are there special sacred or ceremonial sites there?
    If so, are they protected?

    Lots of sacred sites and they are protected by the First Nations people. Cheers!

    Oh, that would be fun!
    If we both had yachts we could meet half-way in Hawaii. :)

    For some odd reason, to me that sounds like the name of an English village.

    What's the meaning of the name for you, Welby?

    I don't know if it is, in reality, an actual English village. But, it is the English small village in John Wyndham's book "The Midwich Cuckoos."

    Wyndham is one of my favorite authors. His science fiction "The Midwich Cuckoos" was the first of his books I read. (It was made into a great and very scary 1960 movie "Village of the Damned.")

    Scary stuff for me but I love it. And all of his books. :)

    Wow, that's flattering.
    I can imagine her sailing on an ink dark sea.

    Such creativity! :)

    If I saw boats with those names, they'd set off all kinds of guesses as to the personalities of their owners;
    I'd never guess they might all be owned by the same man.

    I think I'd like to sail in the Unsinkable - although I might have second thoughts when I wonder what happened to the first.

    She Got The House - sounds like the divorce gave you the freedom you craved. :)
