What's your story?

MATE BAIT Three years ago my husband passed away and I was forced to sell our home, boat, etc. Our second greatest love was the water. We spent every free minute on Kentucky lakes. After a couple of summers without a boat, I decided that I had given up too much! If I could learn "Auto Mechanics 101", why not Boat Mechanics? I enrolled in a coast guard class, enlisted a few good friends to help me with my selection, and bought a boat. With several reservations, I christened her " MATE BAIT ", because I know if I'm to have another relationship, it will have to be with someone who loves the water. Ahoy there, single sailors...... LUCKY 13 because everything good that has happened to us has been on a 13. We married Friday the 13th. We have made decisions on the 13th that have been very wise and profitable. We bought the boat on a 13th. Last important test my husband took was on the 13th and he passed it with flying colors (plus as a bonus) the number in his test paper was #13 too) We go to restaurants and it has not been the first time that we get assigned table #13 (now I notice it more because it has happened so many times). Everything related to us has been on a 13, including our boat ,so what better name than LUCKY 13. NINE JEPPS Our boat is a 19 foot Four Winns. There are 9 people in my family, and our last name is Jeppsen, so we named it " Nine Jepps "(Special Edition). RAPPSODY My 20ft. 95 Thundercraft Diablo 205 is the family joy. Since the family name is Rapp and the definition of Rhapsody is "an enhanced feeling of exhuberance", we felt that the name "RAPPSODY" was perfect. EARTH FORCE sailboat was hit last year while trying to go sailing up in lake superiour. Drunk driver, hit us from behind, looking to sue. My wife to be, stole my sail without me knowing and had an Earth placed over the pirate on the sail. Realizing that wind is an earthly force, and it just sounds cool, I decided to call my boat Earth Force. © 1993-2017 Marine Graphics, Inc.
