Puddle Hound after our puppy who's a poodle cross and loves jumping in puddles. 'Poodle' is also from the German for Pudelhund meaning puddle and hound https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poodle#History

It's a Hurricane, so I call her Katrina, even though some still might find that name in bad taste.

A friend had a small (like 11 foot) RIB. Called it "Baby Back".

Clear Cut. I like things well defined.

I also am a forester (and ashamed there is not a sliver of wood in my boat).
