In December 2007 I bought an 80-foot motor yacht,
currently moored in Seattle. She was built in 1930 of Douglas fir and
is currently named the CREOLE. Any improvements on that name (which is
not the 1930 one) will be gratefully received. Gomboat has been
rejected. The Thomas Tallis bears scrutiny. The Osbert Parsley perhaps
not. She sleeps ten at a pinch and currently makes her living
undertaking very expensive charters up to Alaska. I intend to sail her
across the Atlantic in 2012: my small contribution to the London
Olympics. There will be a professional captain on board.
